An unintended consequence of Covid-19: Healthy nutrition.
Article in Appetite, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The Covid-19 pandemic involving mass quarantines and stay at home orders in many nations has affected consumer behaviour including food intake. Despite the seriousness of the situation, spending more time at home may have had some unintended consequences for consumers. The aim of this study was to investigate the consequences of the current adverse circumstances on nutrition, within the framework of changes in attitude toward healthy eating, health consciousness, fear, and social influence of family, peers, and social media interactions. For this purpose, 732 participants, the majority of whom were female, aged between 26 and 55 years with university degrees, were surveyed online. Data were analyzed using a structural equation modeling approach. Based on results, family influence and social media influence were found to have positive effects on fear of Covid-19 and greater health consciousness. The effect of peer influence was only observed for health consciousness, not fear of Covid-19. Health consciousness and Covid-19 fears positively affected attitude and health consciousness, and attitude was positively related to healthy nutrition, indicating these individuals' beliefs about the healthiness of their current daily diets. Future research and practices may consider the effect of Covid-19 on humans' nutritional attitudes and behaviours based on our study so that health-related issues in the pandemic can be further examined and explained through nutritional consequences by researchers and practitioners in the future.
