Figure Lengend Snippet: Forest plots showing the effects of alpha-mangostin (AM) on triglyceride (TG) and total cholesterol (TC) levels at different doses: ( A ) TG, AM <50 mg/kg/day. ( B ) TG, AM ≥50 mg/kg/day. ( C ) TC, AM <50 mg/kg/day. ( D ) TC, AM ≥50 mg/kg/day. The x-axis represents the mean difference in TG and TC (mg/dL) between the treatment and control groups. Each horizontal line indicates the 95% confidence interval (CI) for an individual study, with the square representing the effect size and its size proportional to the study’s weight. The diamond at the bottom of each plot represents the pooled effect estimate and its CI, calculated using the random-effects DerSimonian–Laird model [ , , , , , , , , ]. SD: standard deviation of the differences.
