Low serum adrenic acid levels in infants and subsequent food-induced anaphylaxis.

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
Background: The dietary fat hypothesis links increases in allergic diseases to reduced consumption of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids from fish, for example, eicosapentaenoic acid, and increased intake of n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids from vegetable oils, for example, arachidonic acid. Objective: Building upon the "fat hypothesis," we sought to investigate the association between 24 types of serum fatty acid levels in infants and the risk of subsequent food-induced anaphylaxis (FIA) by age 2 years as the primary outcome. Methods: This study was conducted as a prespecified supplemental analysis within the ABC randomized clinical trial. We measured levels of 24 fatty acids in residual serum samples collected from 268 infants at age 5 to 6 months using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Results: Among the 258 infants, 58 exhibited immediate-type food allergies, whereas 200 showed no food allergy. Of the 58 infants, 12 were diagnosed with FIA, whereas the remaining 46 had nonanaphylactic food allergy. Unexpectedly, among the 24 fatty acids, only adrenic acid, also known as docosatetraenoic acid, which is one of the n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids, showed significantly lower levels in infants with FIA (median [interquartile range] (wt.%), 0.16 [0.14-0.17]), compared with those with no food allergy (0.19 [0.17-0.21]) ( Conclusions: This study generated a hypothesis suggesting that infants with low serum adrenic acid levels might be at greater risk of subsequent FIA. This unexpected result warrants further investigation.
