Tracking of dietary patterns between pregnancy and 6 years post-pregnancy in a multiethnic Asian cohort: the Growing Up in Singapore Towards healthy Outcomes (GUSTO) study.
Article in European journal of nutrition, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
purposeFew studies have described adherence to dietary patterns over time in women of childbearing age. This study aims to describe, examine the stability and changes in dietary patterns between pregnancy and 6 years post-pregnancy and the sociodemographic and lifestyle factors influencing the adherence over time.
methodsDuring pregnancy and at 6 years post-pregnancy, 24-h recalls and food frequency questionnaires were collected, respectively, from 709 women. Data on sociodemographic and lifestyle factors were collected via questionnaires. Dietary patterns were identified using principal component analysis and stability assessed using Pearson's correlation coefficients (r) and Cohen's weighted kappa (κ). Associations with sociodemographic characteristics were assessed by multiple logistic regression.
resultsThe 'Fruits, Vegetables and Legumes' (FVL) and 'Seafood, Noodle, Soup' (SNS) patterns were identified at both time points, with low correlation for the dietary pattern z scores (r 0.2 and 0.3, respectively) and modest agreement in tertile assignment, suggesting poor stability. An 'unhealthy' pattern was only observed at 6 years post-pregnancy. Women who showed increased adherence to FVL pattern had higher educational attainment and exhibited healthy lifestyle behaviours. Women who had gestational diabetes during pregnancy were less likely to decrease adherence to FVL pattern over time. Women who adhered more closely to the 'unhealthy' pattern at 6 years post-pregnancy tended to be younger, of Malay ethnicity, had lower socioeconomic status, were less physically active and had additional pregnancies.
conclusionsDietary habits of women became less healthy during the transition from pregnancy to 6 years post-pregnancy. However, results should be interpreted with caution due to the different dietary assessment tools used at the two time points.
