Spreads in protein consumption between higher and lower protein groups in protein spread analysis. Spread RDA – Benefit = only those studies meeting RDA inclusion criteria in which the higher protein group experienced greater anthropometric benefits than controls during the intervention; Spread All – Benefit = all studies in which the higher protein group experienced greater anthropometric benefits than controls during the intervention; Spread RDA –No > Benefit = only those studies meeting RDA inclusion criteria in which the higher protein group experienced no greater anthropometric benefits than controls during the intervention; Spread All – No > Benefit = all studies in which the higher protein group experienced greater anthropometric benefits than controls during the intervention.
