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

objectivesAlthough some studies have assessed Selenium nutritional status in different populations, determining the plasma Selenium levels and describing the distribution of dietary Selenium intake in Chinese female adults by using nationally representative data was lacking. The objective was to describe the plasma/dietary Selenium status in Chinese female adults and analyze the possible influencing factors related to dietary Selenium levels.

methodA total of 3016 female adults from China Nutrition and Health Surveillance in 2015 (CNHS 2015) were included. The plasma Selenium concentration was detected by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Dietary Selenium intake (Y, μg/d) was calculated from plasma Selenium concentrations (X, μg/L) using the formula lg(Y) = 1.624 lg(X) + 3.389. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to explore the risk factors of low dietary Selenium intake.

resultsThe median levels of plasma Selenium and dietary Selenium in Chinese adult females were 89.97 μg/L and 49.03 μg/d, respectively. The normal reference range of plasma Selenium in this population was 72.04~141.11 μg/L. There was a higher risk of low dietary Selenium intake in central, western, and northern regions. In general, the plasma Selenium levels in Chinese adult females were lower than those in countries such as the United States and Japan but higher than those in some European countries.

conclusionsThe plasma Selenium levels varied greatly in different regions of China, with typical regional characteristics. Therefore, it was necessary to monitor Selenium nutrition monitoring in specific regions.
