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.

Abstract

Background: Dietary fatty acids (FA) are crucial to the pathophysiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), influencing systemic and gut inflammatory responses. Dietary FA intake influences the fatty acid profiles of vital cell membranes, which might be a source of inflammatory mediators. Despite their significance, research on dietary FA subtypes and their effects on inflammation and oxidative stress in IBD is limited. Objective: We investigated the association between dietary FA intake, the erythrocyte membrane FA composition (EMFA), and inflammation and oxidative stress markers in patients with mild-moderate luminal Crohn's Disease (CD) participating in the CD Therapeutic Dietary Intervention (CD-TDI). Design: A cross-sectional analysis was performed on 24 participants (13 CD-TDI, 11 habitual diet controls) from a 13-week randomized controlled trial assessing the efficacy of CD-TDI in inducing clinical and biomarker remission in CD. Methods: EMFA was analyzed using direct-injection gas chromatography, and dietary FA intake was assessed using the ASA 24-h Dietary Assessment Tool Results: The CD-TDI group showed a significant increase in dietary n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) at Week 13 ( Conclusion: The CD-TDI significantly increased dietary n-3 PUFA intake, reduced pro-inflammatory n-6 PUFA (AA), and improved markers of oxidative stress, supporting its potential in CD management. The cell membrane fatty acid profile might be a therapeutic target in CD. Trial registration: NCT04596566.
