Randomized clinical trial in cancer patients shows immune metabolic effects exerted by formulated bioactive phenolic diterpenes with potential clinical benefits.
Trial report in Frontiers in immunology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05080920 (A Pilot, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled Study to Evaluate an Immune System Modulator Nutritional Supplement for the Prevention of Infections in Cancer Patients Receiving Oncologic Treatment During the COVID-19 Pandemia.), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Background: Nutrients, including bioactive natural compounds, have been demonstrated to affect key metabolic processes implicated in tumor growth and progression, both in preclinical and clinical trials. Although the application of precision nutrition as a complementary approach to improve cancer treatments is still incipient in clinical practice, the development of powerful "omics" techniques has opened new possibilities for delivering nutritional advice to cancer patients. Precision nutrition may contribute to improving the plasticity and function of antitumor immune responses. Objectives: Herein, we present the results of a randomized, prospective, longitudinal, double-blind, and parallel clinical trial (NCT05080920) in cancer patients to explore the immune-metabolic effects of a bioactive formula based on diterpenic phenols from rosemary, formulated with bioactive alkylglycerols (Lipchronic Results: Lip was well tolerated. The lung cancer subgroup of patients showed a reduction in biomarkers of systemic inflammation, including the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR). Furthermore, modulation of key players in the immune system associated with the experimental treatment Lip compared to the control placebo (Pla) treatment was revealed, with particularities among the distinct subgroups of patients. Our results encourage further research to apply molecular nutrition-based strategies as a complementary tool in the clinical management of cancer patients, particularly in the current era of novel immunotherapies.
