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

backgroundLipids are proposed to be important in developing adaptive immunity and allergy. However, studies to date reported inconsistent findings.

objectiveTo examine newborn lipidome (a comprehensive profiling of circulating lipid metabolites) on child's risk of developing food allergy (FA). The maternal-cord joint effects of lipid metabolites on FA development were also investigated.

methodsThis study included 647 mother-child pairs from the Boston Birth Cohort and analyzed 202 lipid metabolites in cord plasma profiled by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. FA was defined based on standard clinical criteria. Logistic regression was applied to examine the relationships between individual metabolites and risk of FA.

resultsOf the 647 children, 61 developed FA. Cord triacylglycerols of long carbon chains and multiple double bonds were significantly associated with decreased risk of FA. These associations were comparable across strata of pertinent maternal and child covariates, and were independent of maternal triacylglycerols when assessed simultaneously. Besides, cord and maternal triacylglycerols had an additive effect in association with risk of FA: Children having high (≥Median) C56:8 triacylglycerol levels in both cord and maternal plasma were at the lowest risk of developing FA (OR = 0.24, 95% CI = 0.10-0.56, p = .001), compared to those having low levels in both cord and maternal plasma.

conclusionThis is the first birth cohort study to link altered cord plasma lipidome with future risk of development FA during childhood. It calls for further investigation on triacylglycerols of long carbon chains and multiple double bonds as potential novel predictive biomarkers and therapeutic targets for FA.
