Influence of fasting status on the effects of coconut oil on chick plasma and lipoprotein composition.

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
For a better understanding of the hyperlipidemic function of saturated fat, we have studied the effects of diet supplementation with 10-20% coconut oil on the chick plasma and lipoprotein composition under postprandial and starvation conditions. A significant hypercholesterolemia was found in chicks fed the standard diet after 12 h of food deprivation. In these conditions, LDL-cholesterol also increased, whereas triglyceride levels were reduced in HDL, VLDL and chylomicron fractions. Coconut oil induced a significant hypercholesterolemia under both conditions, also increasing the plasma triglyceride content under postprandial conditions, but not after starvation. Coconut oil feeding increased all the chemical components of HDL, especially under postprandial conditions, but did not affect the HDL-triglycerides under food-deprivation conditions. Total cholesterol and triglyceride levels in LDL increased after coconut oil supplementation to the diet. Differences were more pronounced under postprandial conditions. Changes in VLDL and chylomicron composition were less evident.
