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

Unsaturated fatty acids are found in humans predominantly in the cis configuration. Fatty acids in the trans configuration are primarily the result of human processing (trans fats), but can also be formed endogenously by radical stress. The cis-trans isomerization of fatty acids by free radicals could be connected to several pathologies. Trans fats have been linked to an increased risk of coronary artery disease; however, the reasons for the resulting pathogenesis remain unclear. Here, we investigate the effect of a mono-trans isomer of arachidonic acid (C20:4-5trans, 8cis, 11cis, 14cis) produced by free radicals in physiological concentration on a model erythrocyte membrane using a combined experimental and theoretical approach. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations of two model lipid bilayers containing arachidonic acid and its 5-trans isomer in 3 mol% were carried out for this purpose. The 5-trans isomer formation in the phospholipids was catalyzed by HOCH
