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

Published results regarding the effects of CLA on immune cell functions have ranged from stimulation to inhibition. In those studies, a mixture of CLA isomers were used, and food intake was not controlled. We have examined whether the discrepancies in the results of earlier studies may be due to the lack of controlled feeding and whether the two isomers of CLA may differ in their effects on immune cell functions. Three groups of C57BL/6 female mice were fed either a control, c9,t11-CLA-, or t10,c12-CLA (0.5 wt%)-supplemented diet, 5 g/d, for 56 d. At the end of the study, the number of immune cells in spleens, bone marrows, or in circulation; proliferation of splenocytes in response to T and B cell mitogens; and prostaglandin secretion in vitro did not differ among the three groups. Both CLA isomers significantly increased in vitro tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin (IL)-6 secretion and decreased IL-4 secretion by splenocytes compared to those in the control group. Thus, the two CLA isomers had similar effects on all response variables tested. The discrepancies among the results from previous studies did not seem to be caused by the differences in the isomer composition of CLA used.
