Influence of dietary arachidonic acid on metabolism in vivo of 8cis,11cis,14-eicosatrienoic acid in humans.

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
This study investigated the influence of dietary arachidonic acid (20:4n-6) on delta 5 desaturation and incorporation of deuterium-labeled 8cis,11 cis, 14-eicosatrienoic acid (20:3n-6) into human plasma lipids. Adult male subjects (n = 4) were fed diets containing either 1.7 g/d (HI20:4 diet) or 0.21 g/d (LO20:4 diet) of arachidonic acid for 50 d and then dosed with a mixture containing ethyl esters of 20:3n-6[d4] and 18:1n-9[d2]. A series of blood samples was sequentially drawn over a 72-h period, and methyl esters of plasma total lipid, triacylglycerol, phospholipids, and cholesteryl ester were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Based on the concentration of 20:3n6[d4] in total plasma lipid, the estimated conversion of 20:3n-6[d4] to 20:4n-6[d4] was 17.7 +/- 0.79% (HI20:4 diet) and 2.13 +/- 1.44% (LO20:4 diet). The concentrations of 20:4n-6[d4] in total plasma lipids from subjects fed the HI20:4 and LO20:4 diets were 2.10 +/- 0.6 and 0.29 +/- 0.2 mumole/mL plasma/mmole of 20:3n-6[d4] fed/kg of body weight. These data indicate that conversion of 20:3n-6[d4] to 20:4n-6[d4] was stimulated 7-8-fold by the HI20:4 diet. Phospholipid acyltransferase was 2.5-fold more selective for 20:3n-6[d4] than 18:1n-9[d2], and lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase was 2-fold more selective for 18:1n-9[ds] than 20:3n-6[d4]. These differences in selectivity were not significantly influenced by diet. Absorption of ethyl 20:3n-6[d4] was about 33% less than ethyl 18:1n-9[d2]. The sum of the n-6 retroconversion products from 20:3n-6[d4] in total plasma lipids was about 2% of the total deuterated fatty acids. Neither absorption nor retroconversion appears to be influenced by diet.
