Substitutions of Saturated Fatty Acids From Different Meats With Dairy and Incident Relationship With Cardiovascular Diseases: The UK Biobank Prospective Study.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundEvidence on the associations with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) for the substitution of saturated fatty acids (SFA) from meats with SFA from dairy and meats remains uncertain, especially for unprocessed and processed poultry. This study aims to model theoretical substitution of SFA from meats with SFA from dairy and meats with incident CVD.
methodsA total of 120 496 UK Biobank participants (57% female, mean age: 55.9 ± 7.8 years) without prevalent CVD and with ≥2 24-hour dietary assessments were included. Multivariable adjusted Cox regressions were used to estimate CVD risk (9890 cases) for the substitution of equivalized SFA from meat with dairy (2.5% of energy), over a median follow-up of 10.5 years.
resultsSubstitution equivalized SFA from total meat with total dairy was associated with lower CVD risk (hazard ratio [HR], 0.91 [95% CI, 0.86-0.96]). Strong inverse associations were found for the substitution of SFA from processed poultry with milk (HR, 0.67 [95% CI, 0.45-0.99), yogurt (HR, 0.58 [95% CI, 0.38-0.87), and cheese (HR, 0.64 [95% CI, 0.43-0.94) and for the substitution of SFA from processed total or poultry with unprocessed total (HR, 0.87 [95% CI, 0.76-0.98) or poultry meats (HR, 0.61 [95% CI, 0.40-0.93), respectively. Analyses involving whole food groups, adjusted for total SFA intake, showed similar results.
conclusionsAssociations between major SFA sources and CVD may not be solely driven by their SFA content but also by other nutrients within these foods and their food matrices. Although our data do not prove causality, it could contribute to the evidence base to inform more specific dietary guidance, particularly in relation to processed meat consumption.
