A double‐blind, randomized, placebo‐controlled trial of n‐3 versus n‐6 fatty acid‐based lipid infusion in atopic dermatitis

Abstract

IV n-3-fatty acid administration is effective in acutely improving the severity of atopic dermatitis, paralleled by changes in plasma and membrane fatty acid composition and lipid mediator synthesis. The long-term beneficial effects of IV n-6 fatty acids should be evaluated further.
