Zn(2+)/Finding
One finding, on its own
A single claim from the graph, with the evidence strength computed from its study, the sentence it was drawn from, and the paper. This address does not change.
Decreases LDL cholesterol
LimitedEvidence strength: limited. Human evidence with several recorded weaknesses, or a design that tops out at limited.Finding“After analyzing the results of 14 studies with 17 effect sizes, a significant reduction in serum concentrations of LDL was observed following zinc supplementation (WMD: −6.18; 95% CI: −9.35, −3.02; P < 0.001).”
