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
Despite being surrounded by farms, rural families are often at risk for diet-related diseases because of food disparities. Barriers such as distance and transportation to a full service grocery store, lack of cooking knowledge and skills, and the cost of fresh produce, force families to shop at convenience stores that carry predominantly unhealthy, processed foods. We combined a Fruit and Vegetable Prescription Program (F&VRx) with family cooking/nutrition classes and a pilot online produce shopping to promote lifestyle dietary changes in rural families. In 2 rural upstate New York communities school health staff referred low income families with one or more children at risk for chronic disease related to obesity for this pilot program. Each family was given a weekly online produce credit for 5 months, September/October 2017 through January/February 2018. Two monthly nutrition/cooking lessons were provided for the entire family. Evaluation was done using pre and post program surveys and Photovoice. Families took photos in response to the question "
