A Healthy Diet Intervention Alters Food Preferences and Eating Behaviours Without Changing Appetite, Adipokines or Glucose Homoeostasis.
Trial report in Journal of obesity, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeThe study aimed to evaluate the influence of a 12-week Mediterranean dietary pattern on eating behaviours, food preferences, appetite, satiety, hunger hormones, adipokines and glucose homoeostasis.
methodsThis study is nested within the He Rourou Whai Painga (HRWP) trial. Adults with a high risk of metabolic disease (waist circumference-based metabolic score, MetSSS score ≥ 0.35) participated in the mixed-meal challenge before and after a 12-week dietary intervention. Questionnaire assessments included the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ) and the Leeds Food Preference Questionnaire (LFPQ). Visual analogue scales (VAS) were used to measure subjective appetite sensations. Blood was drawn in the fasting state and at 15-, 30-, 60-, 90- and 120-min postmeal. The following peptides, hormones and metabolic markers were analysed: adiponectin, ghrelin, leptin, peptide YY (PYY), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP), fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15), glucose, insulin and C-peptide concentrations.
resultsThere was a significant decrease in uncontrolled eating (UE, p value = 0.0226) and an increase in cognitive restraint (CR, p value = 0.0004) following the intervention diet. Implicit desire for high-fat savoury foods, low-fat savoury foods and fat-appeal bias was significantly reduced after the intervention diet. None of the peptides or metabolic markers changed significantly after the intervention diet. Even though glucose, insulin and C-peptide levels decreased following the diet intervention, none of the values reached statistical significance.
conclusionA healthy diet intervention alters food preferences and eating behaviours without changing appetite, adipokines or glucose homoeostasis.
