> Conclusions: Current evidence suggests that whole, fresh fruit consumption is unlikely to contribute to excess energy intake and adiposity, but rather has little effect on these outcomes or constrains them modestly. Single-meal RCTs, RCTs lasting 3–24 weeks, and long-term observational studies are relatively consistent in supporting this conclusion. Whole, fresh fruit probably does not contribute to obesity and may have a place in the prevention and management of excess adiposity.

In a world where there is sugar in essentially everything, I would agree that it would be difficult to find a correlation between the effects of fructose in fresh fruit added to a diet and without it.

I shouldn't have said "does" but "can" would have been more appropriate.
