1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: To examine the association between the neighborhood food environment and dietary diversity score (DDS) among elderly people in China. Methods: Participants were recruited from 12 communities in Beijing, China, in 2019, using a multi-stage stratified random sampling method. Participants ( Results: A total of 1,800 questionnaires were distributed, and 1,775 questionnaires were returned. The questionnaire response rate was 98.6%. Among them, the number of valid questionnaires was 1,764, and the valid rate was 99.4%. The mean age of the participants was 69.7 ± 4.3, and the average DDS was 7.2 ± 1.4. Among the three types of stores, convenience stores had the best access, followed by greengrocers, and finally supermarkets. Sit-down restaurants had the nearest walking distance, Chinese fast-food restaurants had the largest number, and western fast-food restaurants were the most difficult to access. Better access to supermarkets tended to be associated with higher DDS score within all the buffer zones (250 m buffer zone: β = 0.495, Conclusion: This study suggests that supermarkets may increase the DDS score among older adults in Beijing, while greengrocers may reduce the DDS score. However, the current results are not strong enough to draw specific conclusions. Policymakers need to rely on more evidence to make specific policy recommendations.
