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

purposeWhile animal and in vitro data demonstrate vasodilatory effects of egg white-derived peptides, human studies are lacking. We investigated for the first time the effects of an egg ovalbumin-derived protein hydrolysate on blood pressure (BP) and cardiovascular risk.

methodsA double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized crossover trial was implemented in 75 adults aged 50-70 years with systolic BP (130-≤ 150 mmHg). Participants were randomized to an egg ovalbumin-derived protein hydrolysate (3 g/day) or placebo (3 g/day). Participants completed two 6-week periods separated by a 3-week washout.

resultsData from 65 participants with a mean systolic BP (135.1 ± 11 mmHg) were included. Mean office and central BP and arterial stiffness (assessed by carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) or pulse wave analysis (PWA)) did not change over time and no significant differences were observed between the egg protein hydrolysate and placebo groups (P > 0.05). Similarly, no significant effects of this egg ovalbumin-derived protein hydrolysate on blood lipid and glucose concentrations (P > 0.05) were observed.

conclusionThis is the first dietary intervention to investigate the effects of egg ovalbumin-derived protein hydrolysates on cardiovascular risk in humans. Despite promising findings from animal and in vitro studies, this RCT does not support the hypothesis that consumption of an egg ovalbumin-derived protein hydrolysate for 6 weeks in adults with a high-normal BP results in a reduction in BP or the modification of cardiovascular risk.
