🩺 New insights in hemodialysis care.
A major New England Journal of Medicine study reports that daily supplementation with long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid) led to a 43% reduction in serious cardiovascular events among adults receiving maintenance hemodialysis. 🐟💙

A confirmatory trial will be essential, but the signal is compelling. 🌅
