Fish Consumption and Risk of Subclinical Brain Abnormalities on MRI in Older Adults
Neurol 71:439-446, Virtanen,J.K.,et al., 2008
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Among older adults, modest consumption of tuna/other fish, but not fried fish, was associated with lower prevalence of subclinical infarcts and white matter abnormalities on MRI examinations. Our results add to prior evidence that suggest that dietary intake of fish with higher eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid content, and not fried fish intake, may have clinically important health benefits.
