Palmitic acid content in savoury baked goods and modelled trend intake prior and post EU trans-fat regulation.
Article in European journal of nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposePalmitic acid (PA), a prevalent saturated fatty acid (SFA) in European diets, has been linked to adverse health outcomes, including cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative diseases. This study primarily aimed to assess the PA content in Savoury Baked Goods (SBGs) following the EU's trans-fat regulation (2019/649), assuming it might be the main replacer of trans-fats, since it is widely used by the food industry due to its consistency and affordability.
methodsPA levels in SBGs from 2015 to 2021 were measured using randomly selected samples from Athens Metropolitan area. The Hellenic National Nutrition and Health Survey (HNNHS) consumption data was used to estimate PA intake.
resultsAn increase in PA content (in g/100 g product) was observed in most SBG types between 2015 and 2021, ranging from 3.5% in meat-containing pies to 66.7% in vegetarian pies, resulting in subsequent increased intakes. An inverse correlation trend between PA content and SBG purchase price was also observed.
conclusionThe findings underscore the importance of promoting healthier fat alternatives and further research into food reformulation practices to improve public health.
