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

To assess associations between blood nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) levels and laboratory parameters at baseline and after 60 days of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) supplementation. Post hoc analysis of a randomized, double-blind, clinical trial of daily NMN (300, 600, or 900 mg) or placebo in healthy middle-aged participants. Among the 80 participants (49.4 ± 6.8 year), the baseline NAD was 7.21 [5.5, 10.6] nM. Every 1 nM higher baseline NAD level was associated with 0.24% (95%CI: 0.05-0.44) higher lymphocytes, - 0.36% (95% CI: - 0.57 to - 0.14) lower neutrophils, 0.023% (95% CI: 0.011-0.036) higher triglycerides, - 0.009% (95% CI: - 0.015 to - 0.003) lower high-density lipoprotein, 0.02% (95% CI: 0.004-0.035) higher alanine transaminase, 0.01% (95% CI: 0.0003-0.021) aspartate transaminase. Every 1 nM increase in the NAD level was associated with an increase in hemoglobin of 0.027% (95% CI: 0.01-0.045), red blood cells (RBC) of 0.025% (95% CI: 0.009-0.042), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration of 0.016 g/dL (95% CI: 0.008-0.025), and uric acid of 0.02% (95%CI: 0.003-0.038). Higher baseline NAD levels are associated with inflammatory, lipid, and liver profiles. NMN-induced increases in blood NAD are associated with an increase in RBC parameters, potentially indicating enhanced oxygen-carrying capacity.
