Anti-obesity effect of collagen peptides obtained from Diplulmaris antarctica, a jellyfish of the Antarctic region.
Article in Croatian medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
aimTo investigate the ability of collagen peptides derived from a jellyfish of the Antarctic region (Diplulmaris antarctica) to prevent the development of obesity in rats fed a high-calorie diet.
methodsCollagen peptides were produced by pepsin hydrolysis of jellyfish-derived collagen. The purity of collagen and collagen peptides was confirmed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Rats were fed a high-calorie diet for ten weeks and were simultaneously orally administered collagen peptides (1 g per 1 kg of body weight every other day) starting from the fourth week. Body mass index (BMI), body weight gain, selected nutritional parameters, the key parameters associated with insulin resistance, and the level of oxidative stress markers were assessed.
resultsCompared with untreated obese rats, rats treated with hydrolyzed jellyfish collagen peptides had a decreased body weight gain and body mass index. They also had a decreased level of fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, insulin, lipid peroxidation products (conjugated dienes, Schiff bases), and oxidatively modified proteins, as well as a restored activity of superoxide dismutase.
conclusionCollagen peptides obtained from Diplulmaris antarctica can be used to prevent and treat obesity caused by a high-calorie diet and pathologies associated with increased oxidative stress. Given the obtained results and the abundance of Diplulmaris antarctica in the Antarctic region, this species can be considered a sustainable source of collagen and its derivatives.
