Nutritive/non-nutritive sweeteners and high fat diet contribute to dysregulation of sweet taste receptors and metabolic derangements in oral, intestinal and central nervous tissues.

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
objectivesOverconsumption of non-nutritive sweeteners is associated with obesity, whereas the underlying mechanisms remain controversial. This study aimed to investigate the effects of long-term consumption of nutritive or non-nutritive sweeteners with or without high fat diet on sweet taste receptor expression in nutrient-sensing tissues and energy regulation dependent on sweet-sensing.
methods50 Male Sprague-Dawley rats (140-160 g) were assigned to 10 groups (n = 5/group). All received fructose at 2.5% or 10%, sucralose at 0.01% or 0.015% or water with a normal chow diet or high fat diet for 12 weeks. Food and drink intake were monitored daily. Oral glucose tolerance test and intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test were performed at week 10 and 11 respectively. Serum was obtained for measurement of biochemical parameters. Tongue, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, colon and hypothalamus were rapidly removed to assess gene expression.
resultsLong-term consumption of sweeteners impaired glucose tolerance, increased calorie intake and body weight. A significant upregulation of sweet taste receptor expression was observed in all the four intestinal segments in groups fed 0.01% sucralose or 0.015% sucralose, most strikingly in the ileum, accompanied by elevated serum glucagon-like peptide-1 levels and up-regulated expression of sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 1 and glucose transporter 2. A significant down-regulation in the tongue and hypothalamus was observed in groups fed 10% fructose or 0.015% sucralose, with alterations in hypothalamic appetite signals. The presence of high fat diet differentially modulates sweet taste perception in nutrient-sensing tissues.
conclusionsLong-term consumption of whether nutritive sweeteners or non-nutritive sweeteners combined with high fat diet contribute to dysregulation of sweet taste receptor expression in oral, intestinal and central nervous tissues.
