Exploring the Relationship Between Nonnutritive Sweeteners and Nutrient Intake: Findings from the ELSA-Brasil Baseline Study.
Article in Nutrients, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesThis study examines the association between the regular consumption of nonnutritive sweeteners (NNSs) and dietary intake among non-diabetic participants from the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA-Brasil).
methodsThe sample included 9226 individuals aged 35-74 years, with data collected during ELSA-Brasil's baseline. Regular NNS consumption, defined as using NNS-sweetened products at least once daily.
resultsregular NNS use was prevalent in 25.7% of the participants, with higher usage among women, older age groups, higher BMI categories, higher education, and income levels. Multivariate analysis adjusted for sociodemographic and lifestyle factors indicated that NNS use was significantly associated with reduced daily energy (-74.29 kcal), total carbohydrate (-23.68 g), and simple carbohydrate (-11.24 g) intake, while positively associated with increased protein (7.38 g) consumption.
conclusionsIn conclusion, these findings indicate that while there may be some carbohydrate/protein compensation, regular use of nonnutritive sweeteners (NNSs) is associated with fewer calories and carbohydrates, particularly sugars. This suggests that NNSs could be a useful tool for reducing overall caloric and sugar intake in the diet.
