Dietary Inflammatory Potential and the Risk of Incident Depression in Adults: A Systematic Review.

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
Diet is proposed to have a stimulatory or preventative influence on mental health and the risk of depressive symptoms, given that the diet can have either a pro- or an anti-inflammatory effect. This study aimed to collate the relation between dietary inflammatory potential and the risk of depression. PubMed, Google Scholar, ScienceDirect, and Scopus databases, as well as Google were searched for articles published at any date until May 2018. Original English-language articles involving human participants and studies that investigated the association between dietary inflammatory potential and the risk of developing depression were included. Duplicated and irrelevant reports were screened out and data were extracted during critical analysis. Our search method initially identified 173 articles, of which 48 remained after duplicates had been removed. Thirteen articles were screened and identified as being relevant to the study topic. After critical analysis, 12 articles were included in the final analysis. All of the articles but 1 reported that higher dietary inflammatory index (DII) is associated with a higher risk of developing depression. Three studies indicated that DII was positively correlated with circulating inflammatory markers; however, in these studies increased concentrations of circulating inflammatory markers did not predict the diet-depression relation. Low literacy, unhealthy lifestyle, nutritional status, marital status, and age were potent contributory factors to whether or not a diet with inflammatory potential was consumed. These findings support the hypothesis that the DII is an appropriate tool for measuring dietary inflammatory potential, and reinforce the role of diets with inflammatory potential in the pathophysiology of depression.
