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

There has been much interest in the health effects of dietary fat, but few studies have comprehensively compared the acute metabolic fate of specific fatty acids in vivo. We hypothesized that different classes of fatty acids would be variably partitioned in metabolic pathways and that this would become evident over 24 h. We traced the fate of fatty acids using equal amounts of [U-(13)C]linoleate, [U-(13)C]oleate, and [U-(13)C]palmitate given in a test breakfast meal in 12 healthy subjects. There was a tendency for differences in the concentrations of the tracers in plasma chylomicron-triacylglycerol (TG) (oleate > palmitate > linoleate). This pattern remained in plasma nonesterified fatty acid (NEFA) and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL)-TG (P <or= 0.01 and P <or= 0.02 for [U-(13)C]oleate vs. both [U-(13)C]palmitate and [U-(13)C]linoleate for NEFA and VLDL-TG, respectively). There was significantly more [U-(13)C]linoleate than the other two tracers in plasma cholesteryl ester and phospholipid (PL). Using the values for isotopic enrichment in the different lipid fractions compared with the test meal, we calculated the contribution of meal fatty acids to the respective fractions. At 24 h, 10% of plasma PL-linoleate originated from the breakfast test meal. This was significantly greater than for oleate and palmitate (both 3 +/- 0.3%; P < 0.05). This pattern was also true for erythrocyte PL fatty acids. The marked rapid incorporation of linoleate from a single meal into blood PL fractions may have functional consequences such as maintenance of membrane fluidity and may explain why linoleate is a useful biomarker of dietary intake.
