简要总结
This study aims to evaluate whether dietary supplementation with fish oil can protect against the cardiopulmonary alterations linked to air pollution
详细描述
The investigators conduct a randomized controlled trial among 70 healthy college students in Shanghai, China. These students fulfilling the recruitment criteria will be randomly divided into two parallel groups to receive either fish oil [marine-derived n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)] or sunflower seed oil. Participants in fish oil group receive 2.5 g/day (two 1.25-g capsules daily) in divided doses. The sunflower seed oil capsules are identical. All interventions started at 7:30 a.m.to avoid issues related to diurnal variation. Health endpoints, including blood pressure, skin color, fractional exhaled nitric oxide and pulmonary function were evaluated and biological samples such as morning urine, fast blood, saliva sample,buccal cells and skin tape stripping will be collected at week 1 before supplemenatation, and week 8, week 10, week 12 as well as week 14 during the supplementation phase.The investigators measure personal real-time exposure to PM2.5 and personal temperature and relative humidity.

结局指标
主要结局
Cogulation Biomarker-Fibrinogen
时间窗: Blood samples are obtained at the end of each round of 4 follow-ups with an interval of 2 weeks in the last 2 months of intervention.
We measure the serum level of fibrinogen, one of the two measured cogulation biomarkers in our study. The values in the following Outcome Measure Data Table refer to the means of measurements at 4 follow-ups.
Oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein (Ox-LDL)-an Oxidative Stress Biomarker
时间窗: Blood samples are obtained at the end of each round of 4 follow-ups with an interval of 2 weeks in the last 2 months of intervention.
Peripheral blood samples (5 ml) were drawn, separated into serum, and stored at -80 ℃ within 30 minutes. We measure the serum level of ox-LDL. The values in the following Outcome Measure Data Table refer to the means of measurements at 4 follow-ups.
Glutathione Peroxidase (GSH-Px)-a Biomarker of Antioxidant Activity
时间窗: Blood samples are obtained at the end of each round of 4 follow-ups with an interval of 2 weeks in the last 2 months of intervention.
Peripheral blood samples (5 ml) were drawn, separated into serum, and stored at -80 ℃ within 30 minutes. We also measure GSH-Px. The values in the following Outcome Measure Data Table refer to the means of measurements at 4 follow-ups.
Biomarkers of Antioxidant Activity-Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD)
时间窗: Blood samples are obtained at the end of each round of 4 follow-ups with an interval of 2 weeks in the last 2 months of intervention.
Peripheral blood samples (5 ml) were drawn, separated into serum, and stored at -80 ℃ within 30 minutes. We measure 2 biomarkers of antioxidant activity, including TAC and SOD. The values in the following Outcome Measure Data Table refer to the means of measurements at 4 follow-ups.
Biomarkers of Inflammation-Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and Tumour Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α)
时间窗: Blood samples are obtained at the end of each round of 4 follow-ups with an interval of 2 weeks in the last 2 months of intervention.
2 inflammatory biomarkers in our study including IL-6 and TNF-α are measured. The values in the following Outcome Measure Data Table refer to the means of measurements at 4 follow-ups.
Endothelial Function Biomarker-Endothelin-1(ET-1)
时间窗: Blood samples are obtained at the end of each round of 4 follow-ups with an interval of 2 weeks in the last 2 months of intervention.
