Association of the Healthy Nordic Food Index with risk of bladder cancer: a case-control study.

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
backgroundBladder cancer (BC) is the ninth recurrent neoplasm in the world. In Iran, incidence of BC is the third most common among men. Few dietary patterns are related to reduced carcinogenesis and consequently are amenable to modification in order to reduce the BC risk. Adherence to the traditional Nordic diet, as measured by the Healthy Nordic Food Index (HNFI), have shown a beneficial effect on chronic disease prevention, including cancer. The principal objective of this study was to investigate the association between HNFI and the odds of BC in a case-control study, in Iran.
methodThe present case-control study was performed on 100 eligible cases and 200 controls of patients ≥45 years old referred to three referral hospitals in Tehran. Dietary intakes are assessed by a valid 168-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). The relationship between HNFI and BC is estimated using the logistic regression tests.
resultsThe average age of cases and control were 65.41 and 61.31 years, respectively. After controlling for potential confounders (age, smoke, total energy, and sex), participants in the highest tertile of HNFI (compared to the lowest tertile) have 83% lower BC risk (OR = 0.17; 95%CI = 0.07-0.42). Based on an independent assessment of HNFI component and BC risk, a significant negative association was observed for fish intake (OR = 0.30; 95%CI = 0.15- 0.60) and whole-grain bread intake (OR = 0.33; 95%CI = 0.17-0.63).
conclusionThe findings of this study suggested that adherence to traditional Nordic diet could decrease the risk of BC. Of the elements of this diet, fish and whole-grain bread consumption seemed to decrease the odds of BC. Such findings ought to be considered in the development of evidence-base intervention for BC prevention in the country.
