Efficacy and safety assessment of protein supplement - micronutrient fortification in promoting health and wellbeing in healthy adults - a randomized placebo-controlled trial.
Article in Translational and clinical pharmacology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Protein supplements are extensively used for muscle building, weight loss, recovery from exercise, improving endurance & cardio-performance. Major challenge with protein supplement is undigested protein and impaired gut health which results in nausea, dehydration, diarrhea, constipation, indigestion, stomach pain, and decreased appetite. Several studies have linked plant protein with reduced metabolic syndrome incidence. Probiotics can improve gut health as well. The objective of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of protein supplement in promoting health and wellbeing in healthy adults. The present trial is a double blind, multi-center, randomized, placebo controlled, clinical trial involving 60 healthy individuals. The treatment duration was of 90 days. The subjects were randomized to receive either protein supplement treatment or placebo control. Protein supplement significantly improved quality-of-life score by 85.76%, VO
