Eating habits have been analysed for years as a factor influencing the development of autoimmune diseases and susceptibility to infections. On the basis of research, observational studies and meta-analyses, special attention was paid to omega-3 and omega-6 acids. The purpose of the review is to show the importance of omega-3 and omega-6 acids as important ingredients in the healthy diet and as factors protecting against the development of the most common inflammatory rheumatic diseases. The influence of these omega-3 and -6 acids on the course of rheumatic diseases and arguments for their use as complementary therapy are also presented.

Background And Aims: Previous studies have yielded mixed results on the connection between dietary omega-3 and omega-6 intakes and the risk of hypertension (HTN) incidents. Therefore, we conducted a study to survey the connection between baseline dietary intake of omega-3, omega-6, and omega-6 to omega 3 (omega-6/3) fatty acids (FA) and the risk of hypertension.
Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study and assessed dietary intake through a 118-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ).

Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL, Hermetia illucens) contain high amounts of proteins and essential amino acids and are therefore an appropriate feed source. However, they lack essential fatty acids (FAs), specifically ω-3 and ω-6, making them a less desirable feed choice for aquaculture. The aim of this study was to increase the ω-3 and ω-6 FA concentrations in BSFL by manipulating the FA composition in their rearing substrate.

Objective: To analyze the fatty acid content of Jiangnan dishes in Hangzhou.
Methods: Based on the order frequency records from an online platform, two popular Jiangnan cuisine restaurants were selected for monitoring. Fat extraction was performed on three types of dishes: purely vegetarian, mixed vegetarian and non-vegetarian, and purely non-vegetarian, using acid hydrolysis.

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) oxylipins regulate inflammation, and acute systemic inflammation can precipitate cognitive impairment. Females have more HDL and stronger immune responses than males, yet higher dementia risk. Little is known about sex differences in oxylipin responses to inflammatory stimuli and potential crosstalk between acute systemic inflammation and central oxylipin signaling in either sex.

Objective: This study explored the association between ω-6 to ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and metabolic syndrome in women experiencing climacteric syndrome.
Methods: The study involved 186 female participants and utilized surveys, anthropometric measurements (waist circumference, height, BMI, waist-to-height ratio), blood pressure assessments, and blood samples for lipid profile, glucose, insulin, HbA1c analysis. Serum PUFAs levels were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
