Association between polyunsaturated fatty acids dietary intake and pulmonary function among American children: NHANES 2007-2012.

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 existing evidence regarding the protective effect of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) on pulmonary function remains a subject of considerable controversy. Based on this, we further investigated the correlation of PUFAs intake in diet with pulmonary function in healthy American children. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted using the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database of children aged 6-17 in the United States from 2007 to 2012. The correlation of PUFAs intake in diet with pulmonary function was investigated through weighted multivariate linear regression and restricted cubic spline (RCS) curve visualization analysis. Subgroup analysis was carried out to further investigate the robustness of the results and potential interactions in terms of gender, race, age of child, age of mother at birth, and poverty-income ratio (PIR). Results: Altogether 2,508 participants were enrolled in this research. After adjusting for confounders, PUFAs intake was positively correlated with forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) ( Conclusion: The total intake of PUFAs in the diet was positively correlated with pulmonary function in children in the United States, and this correlation was more significant in the male population. The results of this study further confirmed that dietary supplementation of PUFAs was beneficial for improving pulmonary function in children.
