Household food insecurity before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in Chile.

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
objectivesTo compare food insecurity (FI) in Chile before and during the COVID-19 pandemic according to different household types and vulnerability indicators. STUDY
designLongitudinal study based on two population-based surveys in Chile (CASEN 2017 and COVID 2020).
methodsDescriptive analysis and multinomial regression models for FI through the Food Insecurity Experience Scale (FIES).
resultsFI levels increased significantly (P < 0.001) between 2017 (30%) and 2020 (49%). There was increased FI in all households, but especially in those with economically dependent persons (i.e. children, adolescents and older adults). Household vulnerability indicators showed a statistically significant relationship with FI both before and during the pandemic. The pandemic has resulted in new population groups experiencing FI.
conclusionsThe COVID-19 pandemic has led to a significant increase in FI, which has also been seen in new population groups.
