Elevated levels of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) in serum phosphatidylcholine (PC) at the time of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are associated with a lower risk of clinical adverse events during a long-term follow-up, according to a study, suggesting that consumption of foods rich in EPA and ALA may improve STEMI prognosis.
