Biomarkers for dietary fatty acid densities among postmenopausal United States females derived using a habitual-diet human feeding study.
Article in The American journal of clinical nutrition, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00000611 (Women's Health Initiative), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAlthough measures of blood and tissue fatty acid (FA) concentrations are available, objective measures of dietary FA densities (grams per kilocalories) are generally lacking.
objectivesWe aimed to explore the development of biomarkers for specific and composite dietary FA densities, not including contributions from dietary supplements, using metabolite profiles from serum and 24-h urine, along with separately measured serum phospholipid FA concentrations in the Women's Health Initiative.
methodsPotential biomarker equations were based on linear regression of feeding study dietary FA densities on metabolite concentrations, each log-transformed, among participants in a habitual-diet human feeding study (n = 153) within the Women's Health Initiative. Corresponding biomarker equations were also considered for total SFA, MUFA, and PUFA densities and for total n-3 and n-6 PUFA densities. Dietary FA density estimates derived from these equations were evaluated by correlation with feeding study intake densities, and by other important biomarker criteria.

conclusionsCombinations of log-transformed metabolite concentrations can lead to objective intake density estimates for multiple FAs in the diets of United States postmenopausal females, with relevance to the reliable study of dietary FA densities and chronic disease risk. This study was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00000611 https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT00000611).
