Text: Highly significant correlations were identified between atrial and erythrocyte or plasma n-3 [eg, eicosapentaenoic acid (erythrocytes : r = 0. 93, P < 0. 0001 ; plasma : r = 0. 87, P < 0. 0001)], some n-6 [eg, arachidonic acid (erythrocytes : r = 0. 45, P = 0. 0003 ; plasma : r = 0. 39, P = 0. 002)], trans [eg, total trans 18:1 (erythrocytes : r = 0. 89, P < 0. 0001 ; plasma : r = 0. 74, P < 0. 0001)], and monounsaturated [eg, oleic acid (erythrocytes : r = 0. 37, P = 0. 003)] fatty acids.
