The impact of supplementation with highland barley in different nutrients on weight loss: The nutrients and function relationship.

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
The dietary fiber in highland barley (HB) may be a key nutrient in exerting its physiological functions. How about the effects of other nutrients? In this study, a high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mice was constructed to investigate the effects of HB in different nutrients on weight loss. The results showed that peeling treatment had varying effects on HB nutrients. Consumption of HB significantly mitigated weight gain, postprandial blood glucose levels, organ weight, adipose tissue weight, and fat accumulation in obese mice. Consumption of HB also ameliorated hepatic steatosis, hyperlipemia, abnormal liver function, and dysregulation of inflammatory factor expression in mice. Unpeeled and once peeled HB presented the best effect. Furthermore, HB consumption improved the imbalance of gut microbiota in HFD-induced mice, with protein and dietary fiber being the key factors in exerting the improvement effect. This study highlights the potential of protein and dietary fiber in HB for treating obesity.
