Changes in dietary patterns from preconception to during pregnancy and its association with socio-demographic and lifestyle factors.
Article in Public health nutrition, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
objectiveTo examine dietary patterns changes from preconception to during pregnancy and their associations with socio-demographic and lifestyle factors.
designThis study used data from the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health (ALSWH), a population-based prospective cohort study. Women's dietary patterns were assessed using Healthy Eating Index-2015 (HEI-2015) score and the four patterns were obtained from the factor analysis (Western diets, vegetable and grains, traditional vegetable and fruit patterns). Multi-variable linear regression and repeated measures mixed-effect models were used.
settingA national representative survey which covers all Australian citizens and permanent residents in Australia.
participants621 women were included from the ALSWH.
resultsWomen's scores increased on the 'HEI-2015', 'traditional vegetable' and 'fruit' patterns while the 'vegetable and grains' decreased from preconception to during pregnancy. Women with higher education were more likely to increase their HEI-2015 score and fruit consumption from preconception to during pregnancy, respectively (
conclusionThe findings indicate that there have been marked dietary changes from preconception to during pregnancy. Changes in healthy dietary patterns were influenced by education, marital status and income.
