Eating Out and Consumers' Health: Evidence on Obesity and Balanced Nutrition Intakes.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
Changes in demographic and socioeconomic characteristics have contributed to an increase in away-from-home food consumption. Although consumers are increasingly demanding higher quality food, unbalanced nutrition intakes and health issues such as obesity remain prominent predicaments. This paper investigates the relationship between the frequency of having Food Away From Home (FAFH), balanced dietary intakes, and obesity (controlling for covariates) among Korean adults aged 19 to 64. Whether there exists a linear relationship between the number of having FAFH and health outcome is investigated and the optimal number of having FAFH that leads to the best health outcome is identified in the study. The results suggest that Food Away From Home generally increases deviations of dietary intakes from the reference intakes and high-frequency FAFH consumers have an elevated chance of being obese (36.22%). However, having FAFH 1-7 times per week is associated with decreased body mass index (BMI) and a lower chance of being obese in comparison to the outcomes of having food at home. The optimal level of consuming FAFH is identified to be 5-7 times per week in terms of BMI and obesity. However, consuming no FAFH is suggested to be the best in terms of balanced nutrition intake.
