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

backgroundInflammation plays a pivotal role in Cardiovascular disease (CVD) which are a major global health burden. The oil-supplemented Mediterranean diet (MED) is associated with anti-inflammatory effects. The current study evaluates the impact of an olive oils-supplemented MED on pro-inflammatory biomarkers and soluble adhesion molecules.

methodsRegarding PRISMA guideline, this study was conducted and PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science (ISI), Embase, CINAHL databases as well as Google Scholar and Cochrane Library were systematically searched till June 2024.

results15 clinical trials (20 arms) comprising 2477 adults aged 23-80 years were included in the systematic review and 9 of them were entered in the meta-analysis. We revealed that following an enriched MED with olive oils can reduce Interleukin-6 (IL-6) (SMD: - 1.85; 95% CI: -3.69 to -0.01, I

conclusionsThe olive oils-supplemented MED demonstrates significant anti-inflammatory benefits and improvements in soluble adhesion molecules, supporting its role in reducing CVD risk. However, further studies are required to address the high heterogeneity and confirm these findings in diverse populations. TRIAL REGISTRATION/PROTOCOL REGISTRATION: PROSPERO (CRD42023425225).
