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

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.

resultsRegression cross-validated R

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).
