A miniaturized iodine value assay for quantifying the unsaturated fatty acid content of lipids, lipid mixtures, and biological membranes.

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
Various methods exist for identifying and quantifying lipid unsaturation, including mass spectrometry and Raman spectroscopy. A disadvantage of these existing approaches is the need for sophisticated equipment and software, placing them beyond the means of many laboratories. The iodine value (IV) is a colorimetric unsaturation index; however, it uses iodine monochloride, a hazardous chemical, and considerable amounts of sample. Here, we demonstrate the first use of a miniaturized IV method that requires only milliliter quantities of hazardous chemicals and sample sizes such that it is feasible to assay biological membranes. Briefly, lipids are exposed to iodine monochloride, resulting in the replacement of unsaturated bonds with di-halogenated single bonds. Potassium iodide then reacts with unreacted iodine monochloride forming I
