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

backgroundA high-fat diet has been shown to have an impact on metabolism resulting in changes in arterial wall thickness and degeneration of surviving neural cells of the hippocampus. The present review focuses on the various animal models used to induce high-fat diet conditions for studying obesity-induced atherosclerosis, along with the associated changes observed in surviving neural cells of the hippocampus. It also highlights the limitations of rodent models and discusses their implications for human research.

methodsThe sources for the literature search were Scopus, PubMed, Medline and Google Scholar. Both animal and human studies published were considered and are cited.

resultsHigh-fat-diet-induced vascular changes, mainly in the tunica media, has been shown to have more impact on medium-sized arteries and on the Cornu Ammonis three subregions and outer dentatae gyrus of the hippocampus.

conclusionsHigh-fat-diet-induced neurovascular changes have been studied radically in animal models, and more supporting studies representing preclinical research should be advanced to humans.
