01 · The sentence it was drawn from
“In comparison with placebo, phytosomal curcumin was associated with decreased weight (MD = −2.15; 95% CI = −3.78 to −0.53; P =.01; Fig. 5) and waist circumference (MD = −2.09; 95% CI = −4.05 to −0.12; P =.04; Fig. 6), but demonstrated no effect on hip circumference (MD = −0.06; 95% CI = −0.59 to 0.47; P =.83; Fig. 7) or waist/hip ratio (MD = 0; 95% CI = −0.01 to 0.01; P = 1; Fig. 8).”
