They don't seem to have studied the differences at all so I'm not sure you can draw any conclusion like you did. I think it would be a far more interesting study to see the effects of fructose which is still encased in its dietary fiber vs processed fructose. There are definitely a lot of indications out there that there's a big difference but I haven't seen a good study yet directly comparing the two.
