1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The extent to which extreme dietary levels of arachidonate (AA) and/or docosahexaenoate (DHA) modulate lipid composition in the body tissues and consequently affect growth and survival in freshwater Morone larvae species was examined. White bass, M. chrysops, larvae (day 24-46) were fed Artemia nauplii enriched with algal oils containing varying proportions of AA and DHA (from 0 to over 20% the total fatty acids). Growth was significantly reduced (P< 0.05) in larvae fed a DHA-deficient Artemia diet. Increases in dietary levels of AA also were associated with a significant growth reduction. However, the inhibitory effect of AA on larvae growth could be suppressed by the dietary addition of DHA (at a level of 21.6% of the total fatty acids in enrichment lipids). Larval brain + eyes tissue accumulated over 10 times more DHA than AA in its structural lipids (phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine) at any dietary ratio. In contrast, DHA accumulation, as compared to AA, in gill lipids declined considerably at higher than 10:1 DHA/AA tissue ratios. DHA and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) contents in brain + eyes tissue were most sensitive to competition from dietary AA, being displaced from the tissue at rates of 0.36 +/- 0.07 mg DHA and 0.46 +/- 0.11 mg EPA per mg increase in tissue AA, and 0.55 +/- 0.14 mg AA per mg increase in tissue DHA. On the other hand, AA and EPA levels in gill tissue were most sensitive to dietary changes in DHA levels; AA was displaced at rates of 0.37 +/- 0.11 mg, whereas EPA increased at rates of 0.68 +/- 0.28 mg per mg increase in tissue DHA. Results suggest that balanced dietary DHA/AA ratios (that allow DHA/AA ratios of 2.5:1 in brain + eyes tissue) promote a high larval growth rate, which also correlates with maximal regulatory response in tissue essential fatty acids.
