The Effect of a Nurse-Led Low-Carbohydrate Regimen on Symptoms and Eating Triggers of Patients With Metabolic Syndrome: A Quasi-Experimental Study.

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 and Aim: This quasi-experimental study aimed to determine how a nurse-led low-carbohydrate regimen impacts the symptoms and eating triggers experienced by patients with metabolic syndrome. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study. This study recruited 128 participants with metabolic syndrome and assigned them to either an intervention group, which received personalized low-carb diet support, or a control group, which received standard dietary recommendations. Participants completed questionnaires assessing their symptoms and food triggers before and after the intervention. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 27. Results: The prevalence of metabolic syndrome signs was the same in both groups (39.1% vs. 34.4%) before the intervention. After the intervention, a significant reduction in the overall prevalence of these signs and symptoms was observed in the intervention group (12.5%) compared to the control group (43.8%). Furthermore, baseline eating trigger scores showed no significant differences between the groups. Postintervention, the intervention group demonstrated a significant decrease in the total eating trigger score and all subscale scores compared to the control group. Conclusion: These findings underscore the significance of nurse-led low-carbohydrate dietary interventions in influencing symptoms and eating triggers in patients with metabolic syndrome. Applying these insights in clinical practice and research could enhance strategies for effectively managing and preventing metabolic syndrome.
