A Randomized Intervention of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education Did Not Improve Dietary Outcomes Except for Vitamin D Among Lower-Income Women in Indiana.
Trial report in Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05196763 (Maximizing the Impact of Nutrition Education to Meet the Dietary Quality and Food Security Needs of Children and Parents), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundThe goal of US Department of Agriculture Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education (SNAP-Ed) is to improve the likelihood that those eligible for SNAP will make healthy choices aligned with the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025.
objectiveThe objective of the study was to evaluate the long-term effects of a direct SNAP-Ed intervention in which participants actively engage in learning with educator instruction about dietary quality and usual intake of key nutrient and food groups among Indiana SNAP-Ed-eligible women participants as an example sample in the context of no similar existing evaluation.
designThe study design was a parallel-arm, randomized controlled, nutrition education intervention, with follow-up at 1 year. PARTICIPANTS/
settingParticipants (18 years and older; n = 97 women) eligible for SNAP-Ed and interested in receiving nutrition education lessons were recruited from 31 Indiana counties from August 2015 to May 2016 and randomized to an intervention (n = 53) or control (n = 44) group.
interventionThe intervention comprised core lessons of Indiana SNAP-Ed delivered between 4 and 10 weeks after baseline assessment. Each participant completed a baseline and 1-year follow-up assessment. Dietary intake was assessed using repeated 24-hour dietary recalls (up to 2).
main outcome measuresMean usual nutrient, food group intake, diet quality (ie, Healthy Eating Index-2010 scores), and proportion of intervention and control groups meeting Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2020-2025 recommendations and Dietary Reference Intake indicators of requirement or adequacy, were determined using the National Cancer Institute method and the simple Healthy Eating Index-2010 scoring algorithm method. Dietary changes between intervention and control groups were examined over time using mixed linear models. STATISTICAL ANALYSES PERFORMED: Bonferroni-corrected significance levels were applied to the results of the mixed linear models for comparisons of usual intake of nutrients and foods.
resultsNo differences in diet quality, intake of food group components, food group intake, or nutrients were observed at 1-year follow-up, except that vitamin D intake was higher among those who received SNAP-Ed compared with the control group.
conclusionsA direct SNAP-Ed intervention did not improve diet quality, food group intake, or key nutrient intake, except for vitamin D, among Indiana SNAP-Ed-eligible women up to 1 year after the nutrition education.
