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
We investigated whether the substitution of the fatty acid moiety in oleoyl-estrone (OE) by conjugated linoleic acid, i.e. conjugated linoleoyl-estrone (cLE) may help improve the antiobesity effects of OE. Overweight (17% fat) male rats were treated for 10 days with oral OE or cLE (10 nmol/g per day) and compared with controls receiving only the oily vehicle. Rat weight and food intake were measured daily. After killing by decapitation, body composition and main plasma parameters were analysed. cLE induced marked decreases in body weight, energy intake, carcass energy and body lipid, whilst sparing protein; the effects were not significantly different from those obtained with OE. Energy expenditure was unchanged, but energy intake decreased to 46% (OE) or 55% (cLE) of controls; whole body energy decreased by 29% (OE) or 24% (cLE) in the 10-day period studied. Plasma composition showed almost identical decreases in glucose and cholesterol elicited by OE and cLE, with a more marked decrease in triacylglycerols by OE and no effect of either on NEFA. OE decreased leptin and insulin levels, but the effects of cLE were more marked on both, with similar decreases in adiponectin. It can be concluded that cLE is a new drug of the OE family; its overall effects on energy were akin to those of OE, albeit fractionally less effective at the single dose tested. However, this lower potency on lipid mobilisation does not affect other effects, such as powerful hypercholesterolemic effects or the modulation of adiponectin. And last, but not least, cLE seems to produce a more marked decrease in leptin and insulin than OE, which may reflect a coordinate action of the conjugated linoleic acid moiety and the "OE effect" on target tissues. If that were the case, cLE may constitute an improvement over OE in its action on insulin resistance.
