Dietary inflammatory index and prostate cancer risk: MCC-Spain study.
Article in Prostate cancer and prostatic diseases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
backgroundThe etiology of prostate cancer (PCa) is not well-known, and the role of diet is not well established. We aimed to evaluate the role of the inflammatory power of the diet, measured by the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII METHODOLOGY: A population-based multicase-control (MCC-Spain) study was conducted. Information was collected on sociodemographic characteristics, personal and family antecedents, and lifestyles, including diet from a Food Frequency Questionnaire. The inflammatory potential of the diet was assessed using the energy-adjusted Dietary Inflammatory Index (E-DII) based on 30 parameters (a higher score indicates a higher inflammatory capacity of the diet). Tertiles of E-DII were created using the cut-off points from the control group. The International Society of Urology Pathology (ISUP) was grouped as ISUP 1, ISUP 2, or ISUP 3-5. Unconditional logistic regression models were used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (aOR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the association between E-DII score and PCa risk.
resultsA total of 928 PCa cases and 1278 population controls were included. Among PCa cases, the mean value of the E-DII score was 0.18 (SD: 1.9) vs. 0.07 (SD: 1.9) in the control group (p = 0.162). Cases with a more pro-inflammatory diet (3rd tertile) had the highest risk of PCa, aOR
conclusionA positive association was observed between consuming a pro-inflammatory diet and PCa in the MCC-Spain population, specifically for an ISUP grade greater or equal than 2.
