Human Effect Matrix
The Human Effect Matrix looks at human studies (it excludes animal and in vitro studies) to tell you what supplements affect igf binding protein.
| Grade | Level of Evidence [show legend] |
|---|---|
|
Robust research conducted with repeated double-blind clinical trials |
|
Multiple studies where at least two are double-blind and placebo controlled |
|
Single double-blind study or multiple cohort studies |
|
Uncontrolled or observational studies only |
|
Level of Evidence
?
The amount of high quality evidence. The more
evidence, the more we can trust the results.
|
Supplement |
Magnitude of effect
?
The direction and size of the supplement's impact on
each outcome. Some supplements can have an increasing effect, others have a decreasing effect, and others have no effect.
|
Consistency of research results
?
Scientific research does not always agree. HIGH or
VERY HIGH means that most of the scientific research agrees.
|
Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
|
- | Very High See all 3 studies |
No influence of supplementation on circulating concentrations of any measured IGF binding protein (IGFBP-1, IGFBP-2, IGFBP-3) in any tested population.
|
|
|
|
Minor
|
- See study |
An increase in IGF binding protein (3) has been noted following carnitine supplementation in otherwise healthy youth
|
|
|
|
Minor
|
- See study |
An increase in IGF binding proteins has been noted in one study (which would sequester and reduce the activity of IGF hormones); potency of this interaction unable to be determined (no reference drug)
