Dietary fat intake and inflammatory bowel disease.
Article in Current gastroenterology reports, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 biologic role of fatty acids as immunomodulators has been extensively studied in the in vitro and experimental setting because of its potential therapeutic applications in chronic immune-based diseases. Unlike the conventional treatments for such conditions, this approach seldom produces severe side effects. The possibility of manipulating dietary fat as a treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been explored for a number of years. However, to date, few epidemiologic and experimental studies support the potential use of dietary fatty-acid modification. Most of the attempts to demonstrate the usefulness of this therapeutic approach in clinical studies for both active and maintenance treatment in IBD have not succeeded. This lack of success is due in the majority of cases to defects in study design and the use of inappropriate "placebo" substances. This review analyzes the potential role of manipulating dietary fatty acids in IBD with respect to disease treatment and as a possible public health tool. Also discussed is the fact that fat sources may be at least as important as the individual fatty acids because of their non-fatty acid components.
