“A direct pairwise meta-analysis (−2.10 mg/dL; 95% CI, −3.93 to −0.27 mg/dL; p = 0.02) and NMA for studies with a moderate quality of evidence (−2.10 mg/dL; 95% CI, −3.96 to −0.24 mg/dL; p = 0.03) suggested that green tea consumption slightly but significantly reduced FBG concentrations compared with placebo/water (Table 2, Figure 4).”
