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

objectiveThe aim of this study was to analyse the differences in the phospholipid composition of very low density (VLDL), low density (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) monolayers in pregnant lean and obese women.

methodsLDL, HDL, and VLDL were isolated from plasma samples of 10 lean and 10 obese pregnant women, and their species composition of phosphatidylcholines (PC) and sphingomyelins (SM) was analysed by liquid-chromatography tandem mass-spectrometry. Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney U test and principal component analysis (PCA) were used to investigate if metabolite profiles differed between the lean/obese group and between lipoprotein species.

resultsNo significant differences have been found in the metabolite levels between obese and non-obese pregnant women. The PCA components 1 and 2 separated between LDL, HDL, and VLDL but not between normal weight and obese women. Twelve SM and one PCae were more abundant in LDL than in VLDL. In contrast, four acyl-alkyl-PC and two diacyl-PC were significantly higher in HDL compared to LDL. VLDL and HDL differed in three SM, seven acyl-alkyl-PC and one diacyl-PC (higher values in HDL) and 13 SM (higher in VLDL). We also found associations of some phospholipid species with HDL and LDL cholesterol.

conclusionIn pregnant women phospholipid composition differs significantly in HDL, LDL and VLDL, similar to previous findings in men and non-pregnant women. Obese and lean pregnant women showed no significant differences in their lipoprotein associated metabolite profile.
