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.

2 · The registry

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

Camelina seeds are rich in α-linolenic acid (ALA), but also contain small amounts of erucic acid, which is considered toxic to laboratory rats. This experiment compares the dietary inclusion of camelina oil to that of flaxseed oil, a well-known source of ALA, and evaluates their effects on the nutritional and metabolic status of growing rats. The oils were chemically analyzed and incorporated into a semi-purified diet for 4 weeks. The experiment was divided into 3 groups: PO (control-fed palm oil with a trace of ALA), FO (comparative-fed flaxseed oil), and CO (experimental-fed camelina seed oil). Both CO and FO showed a higher percentage of lean body mass, greater lean mass gain, and a lower fat percentage compared to PO. Similar to the body composition, the blood lipid profile also improved in CO and FO, with higher HDL cholesterol and lower triglyceride levels, which was associated with upregulation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor
