Long-Term Moderate Increase in Medium-Chain Fatty Acids Intake Enhances Muscle Metabolism and Function in Mice.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) refer to a mixture of fatty acids typically composed of 6 to 12 carbon atoms. The unique transport and rapid metabolism of MCFAs provide more clinical benefits than other substrates, such as long-chain fatty acids. Although many studies have shown that MCFAs may improve exercise capacity and muscle strength, applications have mainly been limited to low doses. This study explores the effects of high-dose MCFA intake on muscle strength and exercise endurance. Mice were fed high-fat diets containing 30, 35, and 40% (
