1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionPersonalised nutrition (PN) has great potential for disease prevention, particularly if coupled with the power and accessibility of mobile technology. However, success of PN interventions will depend on the willingness of users to subscribe. This study investigates the factors associated with potential users' perceived value of PN and heterogeneity in these values.

methodsA discrete choice experiment was carried out in a representative sample (N = 429 valid responses) from the adult population in Spain. The results were analysed in line with McFadden's Random Utility Theory, using conditional and mixed logit models in addition to a latent class logit model.

resultsThe conditional and mixed logit models revealed the existence of a significant preference and willingness to pay for personalised nutrition, but the effect on average was not large for the highest level of personalisation. The latent class logit revealed four classes of respondent: those who would be likely to pay for a high level of personalised nutrition service, those who would use it if it were heavily subsidised, those who would use only a basic nutrition service, and those who would not be willing to engage. These results could be useful for the design and targeting of effective personalised nutrition services.

conclusionsOver half of adults currently perceive some individual benefit in a high level of PN, which may justify some degree of public subsidy in investment and delivery of such a service.
