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

backgroundThe antiatherogenic effect of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) has been demonstrated in animal models. Although there are plenty of

objectiveIn this study, we assessed the impact of CLA supplementation on the levels of atherosclerosis markers - high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA).

designSeventy-four adult female subjects with body mass index ≥25 kg/m

resultsNo significant differences were found in hs-CRP and ADMA levels before and after nutritional intervention between both groups. The changes in hs-CRP and ADMA concentration values (Δhs-CRP; ΔADMA median [interquartile range]) did not differ between subjects from the placebo (-0.1 [-0.8 to 0.3]; -0.02 [-0.12 to 0.14]) and CLA (0.2 [-0.7 to 0.9]; 0.04 [-0.14 to 0.13]) groups. The incidence of reduction of hs-CRP or ADMA concentration was not different in subjects of the CLA group compared to those of the placebo group (41.9% vs. 50%, relative risk [RR]=0.8387, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.4887-1.4493,

conclusionTwelve weeks of CLA supplementation had no effect on selected markers of atherosclerosis in obese and overweight women.
