Fish consumption and risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality: a dose-response meta-analysis of prospective observational studies.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

There are some indications of regional differences in the association between fish consumption and clinical outcomes. We aimed to test the linear and potential non-linear dose-response relationships between fish consumption and risk of all-cause and cardiovascular (CVD) mortality, and possible confounding by region.

Design

Systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis.

Setting

Systematic search using PubMed and Scopus, from inception up to September 2016.

Subjects

Prospective observational studies reporting the estimates of all-cause and CVD mortality in relation to three or more categories of fish intake were included. Random-effects dose-response meta-analysis was conducted.

Results

Fourteen prospective cohort studies (ten publications) w
