    Evidence strength: moderate.Finding
    “Pooled results obtained by employing a random-effects model demonstrated that selenium supplementation remarkably lowered serum insulin levels (SMD: −0.53, 95% CI [−0.84, −0.21], p = 0.001) and decreased HOMA-IR (SMD: −0.50, 95% CI [−0.86, −0.14], p = 0.006) (and Figure 5).”
