1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Heat-killed Fructobacillus fructosus OS-1010 reportedly enhance the number and membrane potential of mitochondria in muscle cell C2C12 in vitro. However, there are no reports on the effects of this strain on mitochondria or the resulting effects on the body in animal models. In this study, we investigated the effects of heat-killed F. fructosus OS-1010 on obesity and other metabolic abnormalities and muscle weakness in mice with high-fat diet (HFD)-induced sarcopenic obesity. C57BL/6 mice were fed HFD supplemented with heat-killed F. fructosus OS-1010 for 13 weeks. The HFD-induced body weight gain was significantly reduced. Additionally, there was a significant decrease in alanine aminotransferase levels, improvement in serum lipid profiles, and a reduction in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) progression. Skeletal muscle weakness was also mitigated, with changes in gene expression in the quadriceps indicating suppression of intramuscular fat accumulation, and enhancement of mitochondrial density. The findings of this study suggest that heat-killed F. fructosus OS-1010 functions as an anti-obesity postbiotic, potentially benefiting both NAFLD and muscle weakness associated with obesity.
