%X Participants¡¯ distribution and flow during the trial based on the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials. The participants¡¯ distribution and flow during the trial based on the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials [52]. It indicates total number of study participants who were recruited (N£¿=£¿282), excluded from enrolment based on exclusion criteria (N£¿=£¿66), enrolled for the 8-week study (fish oil arm£¿=£¿109; soybean oil arm£¿=£¿107), dropped out before the 8 weeks (fish oil arm£¿=£¿23; soybean oil£¿=£¿11) and those who completed the 8-week trial period and were included in the analysis (fish oil£¿=£¿86; soybean oil£¿=£¿96).The difference in completion between the two groups was, however, not significant at the end of study (X2(1)£¿=£¿1.64; p value£¿=£¿0.20), and did not significantly influence the change in BDI-II depressive symptom scores in fish oil (0.41 (95% CI £¿£¿4.49 to 5.32), p£¿=£¿0.87) and soybean oil (£¿£¿3.21 (95% CI £¿£¿13.18 to 6.76), p£¿=£¿0.52) group
