Multi-Axis Reprogramming of Muscle-Metabolic Crosstalk by HiLo Platinum™ Restores Strength in Prediabetes via Mitochondrial Activation and Gut Microbiome Remodeling.

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
Prediabetes is increasingly recognized as a risk factor for sarcopenia, driven by chronic low-grade inflammation, insulin resistance, and impaired anabolic signaling. Nutritional interventions containing whey protein, hydroxymethylbutyrate (HMB), glucosamine, and micronutrients may offer a multi-target strategy to counteract muscle deterioration. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of HiLo Platinum™ supplementation in attenuating muscle strength decline in a prediabetic rat model, with integrated analysis of metabolic biomarkers and gut microbiome profiles. A randomized preclinical trial was conducted using male Sprague Dawley rats assigned to four groups: normal diet (ND), prediabetic control induced by cholesterol- and fat-enriched diet with fructose (CFEDF), and two treatment groups receiving low-dose (0.63 g/kg BW) or high-dose (1.26 g/kg BW) HiLo Platinum™. The intervention lasted six weeks. Muscle strength was assessed via a four-limb grip strength test (reverse hang time and holding impulse). Biomarkers related to inflammation, mitochondrial function, and anabolic signaling (TNF-α, IL-10, PGC-1α, IGF-1, SIRT-1, AMPK, mTOR, and myostatin), lipid profile, and blood glucose were analyzed. Gut microbiome composition and diversity were evaluated using taxonomic profiling and multivariate analyses. HiLo Platinum™ supplementation significantly improved muscle strength, evidenced by increased reverse hang time and holding impulse (
