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

Background and Objectives: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome among Filipino adults was found to be 12-19%. Diet has been one risk factor targeted to prevent complications. The association of each macronutrient component with metabolic syndrome remains unclear. There is no Philippine data on macronutrient intake and metabolic syndrome, thus, the primary objective of this study is to determine the association of food intake with metabolic syndrome among Filipino adults. Methods: This study utilized a cross-sectional design. Data were taken from the results of the 8 Results: There were 8,056 adults included in the study. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 32%. Multivariate analysis showed that increased total protein intake (OR 1.391) and increased daily consumption of meat and poultry (OR 1.397) were associated with increased risk for metabolic syndrome. On the other hand, decreased vegetable intake was associated with increased risk for metabolic syndrome, as well as higher socioeconomic status, female sex, and old age. Conclusion: Increased total protein intake and daily consumptions of meat, poultry, and decreased vegetable intake are associated with an increased risk for metabolic syndrome.
