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

backgroundThe consumption of high amounts of fructose is associated with metabolic diseases. However, the underlying mechanisms are largely unknown.

objectiveTo determine the effects of high fructose intake on plasma metabolomics. STUDY

designWe enrolled 12 healthy volunteers (six lean and six obese women, age 24⁻35 years) in a crossover intervention study. All participants carried out three diets: (1) low fructose (<10 g/day); (2) high fructose (100 g/day) from natural food sources (fruit); and (3) high fructose (100 g/day) from high fructose syrup (HFS). OUTCOME MEASURES: The primary outcome was changes in plasma metabolites measured by targeted metabolomics.

resultsHigh compared to low fructose diets caused a marked metabolite class separation, especially because of changes in acylcarnitine and lysophosphatidylcholine levels. Both high fructose diets resulted in a decrease in mean acylcarnitine levels in all subjects, and an increase in mean lysophosphatidylcholine and diacyl-phosphatidylcholine levels in obese individuals. Medium chain acylcarnitines were negatively correlated with serum levels of liver enzymes and with the fatty liver index. DISCUSSION: The metabolic shifts induced by high fructose consumption suggest an inhibition of mitochondrial β-oxidation and an increase in lipid peroxidation. The effects tended to be more pronounced following the HFS than the fruit diet.
