Effects of Liupao Tea with Different Years of Aging on Glycolipid Metabolism, Body Composition, and Gut Microbiota in Adults with Obesity or Overweight: A Randomized, Double-Blind Study.
Article in Foods (Basel, Switzerland), 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
backgroundLiupao tea (LPT) is a traditionally fermented dark tea from Guangxi, China and the effects of different aging periods of LPT on metabolic health remain inadequately explored.
methodsThis randomized, double-blind, longitudinal study enrolled 106 adults with obesity or overweight who were assigned to consume LPT of different ages over a 90-day period. Participants were randomly divided into four groups, each consuming LPT that had been aged for 1 year, 4 years, 7 years, or 10 years. The metabolic parameters, body composition, and gut microbiota were assessed at baseline and after the 90-day intervention.
resultsAll LPT groups experienced significant reductions in systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), with the 10-year-aged group showing the most notable SBP decrease (
conclusionsLPT consumption effectively improves blood pressure, lipid profiles, and body composition in adults with obesity without adverse liver effects. The aging duration of LPT does not significantly alter these health benefits, challenging the belief that longer-aged LPT is superior.
