Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency
Archives of Dermatology, 1978To the Editor.— The presentation of the case by Skolnik et al., "Human Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency," in the July 1977Archives(113:939-941) emphasizes the nutritional need for essential fatty acids (EFA) during total parenteral nutrition. Their patient's clinical signs of dermatitis and alopecia cleared in one to three months with linoleic acid ...

ECZEMA AND ESSENTIAL FATTY ACIDS
Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, 1947DERMATOLOGIC conditions classified perforce under the comprehensive and admittedly unsatisfactory term "eczema" constitute one of the chief problems encountered in the practice of medicine. True enough, as diagnostic methods have improved, the number of clinical conditions so designated has become fewer.

Essential fatty acids and prostaglandins
Preventive Medicine, 1987The World Health Organization's recommendation for dietary intake of essential fatty acids is 3% of energy (en%) of linoleate. Evidence from rat studies suggests that more than 3 en% is desirable for the regulation of eicosanoid metabolism. With such a low level of available linoleate, humans tend to synthesize more prostanoids than they do with 6% or ...

Essential Fatty Acids - A Review
Current Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, 2006Essential fatty acids (EFAs): cis-linoleic acid (LA) and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) are essential for humans and their deficiency is rare in humans due to their easy availability in diet. EFAs are metabolized to their respective long-chain metabolites: dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA), and arachidonic acid (AA) from LA; and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)

How Essential Are Fatty Acids?
JAMA, 1961ALTHOUGH the existence of essential fatty acids (EFA) has been known for 30 years, clinical interest in these dietary substances has been slight until recently. The possible relationship of EFA to the prevention or therapy of degenerative diseases such as atherosclerosis has projected these nutrients into the first rank of medical problems and interest.

Essential Fatty Acids Revisited
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1980Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are aliphatic monocarboxylic acids with two or more double bonds in any positional arrangement or geometric configuration. Those PUFAs that prevent or relieve the symptoms of dietary deficiency in humans and animals are named, therefore, the essential fatty acids (EFAs).
