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.
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
backgroundEarly nutritional challenges can lead to permanent metabolic changes, increasing risk of developing chronic diseases later in life. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) is a life-saving nutrition regimen, used especially in intrauterine growth-restricted (IUGR) neonates. Early TPN feeding alters metabolism, but whether these alterations are permanent is unclear. Programmed metabolism is likely caused by epigenetic changes due to imbalances of methyl nutrients.
objectivesWe sought to determine whether feeding TPN in early life would increase risk of developing dyslipidemia in adulthood and whether supplementing the methyl nutrients betaine and creatine to TPN would prevent this development. We also sought to determine whether IUGR exacerbates the effects of neonatal TPN on lipid metabolism in adulthood.
methodsFemale piglets (n = 32; 7 d old) were used in 4 treatments: 24 normal-weight piglets were randomly assigned to sow-fed (SowFed), standard TPN (TPN-control), and TPN with betaine and creatine (TPN-B+C); 8 IUGR piglets were fed control TPN (TPN-IUGR) as a fourth group. After 2 wk of treatment, all pigs were then fed a standard solid diet. At 8 mo old, central venous catheters were implanted to conduct postprandial fat tolerance tests.
resultsFeeding TPN in the neonatal period led to dyslipidemia in adulthood, as indicated by higher postprandial triglyceride (TG) levels in TPN-control (P < 0.05), compared with SowFed. IUGR piglets were particularly sensitive to neonatal TPN feeding, as TPN-IUGR piglets developed obesity and dyslipidemia in adulthood, as indicated by greater backfat thickness (P < 0.05), higher liver TG (P < 0.05), slower postprandial TG clearance (P < 0.05), and elevated fasting plasma nonhigh-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (P < 0.01), and nonesterified fatty acids (P < 0.001), compared with TPN-control.
conclusionsFeeding TPN in early life increases the risk of developing dyslipidemia in adulthood, especially in IUGR neonates; however, methyl nutrient supplementation to TPN did not prevent TPN-induced changes in lipid metabolism.
