Sepsis/endotoxemia associates with coagulation abnormalities. We showed previously that exogenous choline treatment reversed the changes in platelet count and function as well as prevented disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in endotoxemic dogs. The aim of this follow-up study was to evaluate the effect of treatment with choline or cytidine-5'-diphosphocholine (CDP-choline), a choline donor, on endotoxin-induced hemostatic alterations using thromboelastography (TEG).

Article Synopsis
- The study compares the effects of krill oil (KO) and fish oil (FO) on wound healing in a rat model after colon surgery, highlighting differences in fatty acid composition between the two oils.
- A total of 42 male rats were used, divided into groups receiving either oil or serving as controls, with various assessments conducted on days 3 and 7 post-surgery.
- Results showed that the KO group had significantly better outcomes in measures such as tissue integrity and healing indicators compared to the FO group, suggesting KO may be the superior omega-3 source for reducing postoperative complications.
