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

This study examines the effect of diacylglycerol (DAG) oil consisting mainly of 1,3-species on fat oxidation as a possible mechanism for anti-obesity. We examined the following: (1) the long-term (23-week) effects of a DAG oil diet on the development of obesity; (2) the effect of a single ingestion of DAG oil on fat oxidation; and, (3) the short-term (2-week) effect of a DAG oil diet on fat metabolism in rats. Rats fed a DAG oil diet accumulated significantly less body fat compared to rats fed a triacylglycerol (TAG) oil diet, each oil possesses a similar fatty acid composition. More( 14)C-CO(2) was expired and less( 14)C-radioactivity was incorporated into visceral fat after administration of a tracer emulsion containing 1,3-[oleoyl-1-(14)C] diolein compared to [carboxyl-(14)C] triolein. Indirect calorimetry showed respiratory quotients were significantly lower in the DAG oil diet group than in the TAG oil diet group. More( 14)C-CO(2) was expired and less (14)C-radioactivity was incorporated into visceral fat in the DAG oil diet group than in the TAG oil diet group after a single intragastric administration of [carboxyl-(14)C] triolein. These results suggest the following. (1) DAG oil has an inhibitory effect on diet-induced fat accumulation. (2) 1,3-DAG, a major component of DAG oil, is more susceptible to oxidation. (3) A short-term ingestion of DAG oil increases fat utilization at the whole body level and results in increased oxidation of dietary fat. The stimulated fat oxidation might be one explanation for the anti-obesity effect of long-term DAG oil ingestion.
