Acute Effects of Non-Oil-Seed Pulses on Parameters of Cardiometabolic Health: A Systematic Review of Human Intervention Studies.
Synthesis in Nutrition reviews, 2026. 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
backgroundNon-oil-seed pulses offer a plant-based source of dietary protein and further nutritionally valuable nutrients such as essential micronutrients and dietary fiber, making them a key component of sustainable diets emphasizing plant protein. They are also a relevant dietary source of carbohydrates with a low glycemic index.
objectiveThis systematic review aimed to evaluate the acute effects of a variety of non-oil-seed pulses on various parameters of cardiometabolic health, hunger, and satiety.
methodsIn this systematic review, a literature search in the PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Scopus databases was conducted, and 40 human intervention studies were identified that investigated the effects of non-oil-seed pulses on postprandial metabolic events.
resultsMost of the articles in this review reported that non-oil-seed pulses cause lower glucose (28 of 40 studies) and insulin (16 of 24 studies) responses than other starchy foods in the control groups (mainly wheat-flour-based products or white rice). These results were reported for a variety of non-oil-seed pulses and pulse products. Additionally, 3 of 5 studies found a significantly reduced feeling of hunger following meals enriched with pulses compared with the control meal, while the remaining 2 studies found a nonsignificant reduction. Although the studies examining satiety and fullness found increased satiation following pulse-enriched meals, only 1 of 6 studies found a significantly greater increase in satiety compared with the control, and 3 of 6 studies found a significantly greater increase in fullness. Other study variables, such as parameters of lipid metabolism and vascular function, have only been investigated in a few studies, and those studies mostly reported no significant effects.
conclusionThis systematic review confirmed that non-oil-seed pulses can attenuate postprandial glycemia and lipemia and can therefore be classified as low-glycemic food. Future human intervention studies should focus on the acute and chronic effects of non-oil-seed pulses on further health-related parameters, such as inflammatory markers and vascular function.
