Effects of a high monounsaturated fat, tomato-rich diet on serum levels of lycopene.
Trial report in European journal of clinical nutrition, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveTo compare the effect of a modified fat, monounsaturated-fat-enriched diet and a high-carbohydrate low-fat diet with high lycopene content on the serum concentration of lycopene and other carotenoids.
designA randomised crossover dietary intervention study.
settingMelbourne, Australia--Healthy free-living men. SUBJECTS: A total of 13 healthy males between the age of 20 and 70 y, recruited via advertisements in newspapers and university newsletter.
interventionA randomised dietary intervention with two diets of 14 days each. The two diets were--(1) high-fat monounsaturated-fat-enriched (MUFA) and (2) high-carbohydrate low-fat (HCLF). Both the diets contained the same basic foods and a controlled carotenoid content high in lycopene.
resultsA significant increase in serum total lycopene occurred, by 126% on the MUFA diet (P <0.001) and 108% on the HCLF diet (P=0.001). A reduction in serum cryptoxanthin (27% on MUFA diet and 25% on HCLF) and alpha-carotene (43% on the MUFA diet and 25% on the HCLF diet) was observed. No change was observed for the other carotenoids. Comparing the end of the two diets, no statistically significant difference was observed for lycopene or the other carotenoids.
conclusionIn all, 15% of energy from fat or 38% of energy from fat (predominantly monounsaturated fat) in the diet does not have a significant differential effect on serum lycopene. SPONSORSHIP: The study was partially funded by the Grains Research Development Corporation, Canberra and Meadow Lea Foods Ltd, Mascot, Australia. HJ Heinz, Melbourne, Australia provided the tomato products and some funds for their carotenoid analysis.
