The evidence provided by meta-analyses on the beneficial impacts of cinnamon supplementation on anthropometric indices are still conflicting. Present study's aim was to evaluate the effects of cinnamon on obesity indices by an umbrella meta-analysis. The electronic databases including Web of Science, PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus were systematically searched up to March 2021. Data for the effects of cinnamon on anthropometric indices were collected from the meta-analyses. An umbrella meta-analysis was carried out using a random-effects model. The pooled effects of 7 meta-analyses showed that cinnamon supplementation significantly reduced body weight (ES: -0.67 kg; 95% CI: -0.99, -0.35, p ˂ .001), body mass index (ES: -0.45 kg/m ; 95% CI: -0.57, -0.33, p ˂ .001) in comparison to control group. However, the effects of cinnamon on waist circumference (ES: -1.05 cm; 95% CI: -2.26, 0.15, p = .087) were not considerable. According to results, cinnamon could be suggested as a complementary weight loss agent. Favorable results were obtained at a dose of ≥3 g/day. In this study, a comprehensive study was performed on meta-analyses performed on the effect of cinnamon on anthropometric indices. This study could be considered as a final conclusion about the effect of cinnamon on anthropometric indices. The results of this study showed that supplementation with cinnamon significantly reduces BMI and body weight. The impacts were greater in doses of ≥3 g/day and in PCOS patients.

荟萃分析提供的证据表明,肉桂补充剂对人体测量指数的有益影响仍存在争议。本研究旨在通过伞式荟萃分析评估肉桂对肥胖指数的影响。系统检索了包括 Web of Science、PubMed、EMBASE 和 Scopus 在内的电子数据库,检索时间截至 2021 年 3 月。从荟萃分析中收集了肉桂对人体测量指数影响的数据。使用随机效应模型进行了伞式荟萃分析。7 项荟萃分析的汇总结果表明,与对照组相比,肉桂补充剂可显著降低体重(ES:-0.67kg;95%CI:-0.99,-0.35,p<.001)和体重指数(ES:-0.45kg/m;95%CI:-0.57,-0.33,p<.001)。然而,肉桂对腰围的影响(ES:-1.05cm;95%CI:-2.26,0.15,p=0.087)并不明显。根据结果,肉桂可以作为一种辅助减肥剂。剂量≥3g/天时可获得良好的效果。在这项研究中,对肉桂对人体测量指数影响的荟萃分析进行了综合研究。这可以被认为是关于肉桂对人体测量指数影响的最终结论。这项研究的结果表明,肉桂补充剂可显著降低 BMI 和体重。在剂量≥3g/天和 PCOS 患者中,影响更大。
