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

Background: Obesity is a serious health concern associated with many diseases. Studies have found that medicinal herbs have potential leads to treatment. Therefore, clove and cardamom extracts are known to have a positive effect on obesity management and reducing obesity-related risks. Aims: This study aimed to compare the effect of cardamom ( Methods: Twenty male Sprague-Dawley albino rats were divided into four groups (five rats each) as follows; The first was the negative control group, the second was the positive control group (obese rats), the third group was obese with oral administration of 1 mg/kg b.wt. of cardamom alcoholic extract, and the fourth group was obese with oral administration of 1 mg/kg b.wt. of clove alcoholic extract. At the end of the experiment (28 days), rats were mercy sacrificed; the body weight gain, food intake, and feed efficiency ratio were measured; and TC, TG, HDL, LDL and VLDL were analyzed. Results: Rats treated with cardamom and clove extracts showed a significant decrease in body weight gain compared to the positive control group, with a higher significant reduction in cardamom, in addition, for enhancing nutritional status. Conclusion: Cardamom and clove improve the body weight and nutritional status, as well as improve food intake and feed efficiency ratio, showing a higher effect of the cardamom extract.
