Title: Diet and Omega-3 Intervention Trial on Atherosclerosis
Brief Summary: The study was actuated to evaluate the effects of a 3-year intervention with diet and/or very long chain omega-3 (VLC n-3 PUFA), in a randomized 2x2 factorial design on the progression of atherosclerosis in a high risk population. A total of 563 elderly men were included and randomized to receive usual care and VLC n-3 placebo capsules (control group), dietary advice and VLC n-3 placebo capsules, usual care and VLC n-3 capsules, and finally both VLC n-3 capsules and dietary advice.

The evaluation of atherosclerosis were i) ultrasound measurement of carotid intima media thickening ii) pulse wave propagation time iii) circulating biomarkers of atherosclerosis.

Last liver biopsy will be within 3 years of recruitment to the study.
* Liver fat diagnosed by ultrasound, CT or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients who also have either diabetes and/or features of the metabolic syndrome, without evidence of known aetiological factors for underlying liver disease (e.g. exclusion of hepatitis A, B \& C, primary biliary cirrhosis, autoimmune hepatitis, haemochromatosis).

* Previous bariatric or other abdominal surgery.
* Continuous use of antibiotics that may change gut microflora, probiotics, or antisecretory drugs capable of causing achlorhydria within the 2 months preceding enrolment, or evidence of immunoglobulin A or immunoglobulin deficiency (both of which produce confounding effects during assessments of intestinal permeability and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth).
