Plasma phospholipid AA and EPA are prospectively associated with indices of heart remodeling, including ventricular remodeling and performance. Combined AA and EPA scarcity was associated with the most accelerated age-related changes and exam 5 status, while the greatest benefits were found among participants with both PUFAs. This suggests that both PUFAs are required for optimal slowing of age-related declines in ventricular function.
