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

Diet-related diseases are the leading cause of death globally and strategies to tailor effective nutrition advice are required. Personalised nutrition advice is increasingly recognised as more effective than population-level advice to improve dietary intake and health outcomes. A potential tool to deliver personalised nutrition advice is metabotyping which groups individuals into homogeneous subgroups (metabotypes) using metabolic profiles. In summary, metabotyping has been successfully employed in human nutrition research to identify subgroups of individuals with differential responses to dietary challenges and interventions and diet–disease associations. The suitability of metabotyping to identify clinically relevant subgroups is corroborated by other fields such as diabetes research where metabolic profiling has been intensely used to identify subgroups of patients that display patterns of disease progression and complications. However, there is a paucity of studies examining the efficacy of the approach to improve dietary intake and health parameters. While the application of metabotypes to tailor and deliver nutrition advice is very promising, further evidence from randomised controlled trials is necessary for further development and acceptance of the approach.
