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

backgroundDietary Reference Intake (DRI) Recommendations for total sulfur amino acids (TSAAs; methionine + cysteine) during pregnancy are based on factorial calculations using data from adult males. To date, no data exist on TSAA requirements obtained directly during pregnancy.

objectivesThe objective of this study was to examine whether TSAA requirements during early (11-20 wk) and late (31-40 wk) gestation in healthy females with singleton pregnancies are different than current recommendations, and different between early and late gestation using the indicator amino acid oxidation (IAAO) technique.

methodsTwenty-five females 20-40 y with a healthy singleton pregnancy were studied using the IAAO technique in a repeated measures design for a total of 70, 8-h d. On each study day a methionine test intake (range: 0-40 mg⋅kg

resultsThe TSAA requirement in healthy pregnant participants in early gestation was 11.1 mg⋅kg

conclusionsWe directly measured TSAA requirements in healthy pregnant mothers, and our findings suggest that requirements are lower than current DRI recommendations of 20 and 25 mg⋅kg
