Fruit and Vegetable Consumption, and Physical Activity with Partner and Parental Status in African American Adults.
Article in Journal of family medicine & community health, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectivesThe purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between partner and parental status and self-reported weekly fruit and vegetable consumption and level of physical activity in African American adults.
methodsA national sample of 2,370 African Americans participated in a telephone survey. Demographic data were collected and compared with fruit and vegetable consumption and physical activity responses.
resultsWhen controlling for age (mean age = 53.6 ± 14.8 years) and education level, having children in the household was associated with greater fruit consumption. Being partnered was associated with moderate physical activity weekly for a higher percentage of women, and yet a shorter duration of minutes of moderate physical activity weekly for both women and men. Males (38.2% of the sample) reported being more physically active and females (61.8% of the sample) reported eating more fruits and vegetables.
conclusionsBy understanding the role of partner and parental status in relation to healthy lifestyle for African Americans, family scientists and health care practitioners may be able to target the needs of this population to help prevent obesity and chronic illness.
