ME:....."Triglyceride levels can be reduced by the administration of of HIGHER DOSES n-3 fatty acid supplements (typically, 2 to 4 g daily) than were used in our trial (in which triglyceride levels were not measured), and it is possible that a reduction in the triglyceride level may produce benefits in some patients."

Although R-IT is not mentioned by name, Jelis and R-IT are definitely what the authors of Ascend were referring to.....After the negative results of the Ascend trial, it would be more valuable, now than ever, to have the results of a positive R-IT trial released ASAP so R-IT success can bask in the light of a comparison with Ascend failure.
