Validation of a new scoring approach of a child dietary questionnaire for use in early childhood among low-income, Latino populations.
Article in BMC nutrition, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03141151 (Competency-based Approaches to Community Health), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 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.

Abstract
backgroundMeasuring diet quality in early childhood requires time-intensive and costly measurements (e.g., 24-hour diet recall) that are especially burdensome for low-income, minority populations. This study aimed to validate a new method for calculating overall diet quality among low-income, Latino preschoolers.
methodsThis study was an observational study using data from a randomized controlled trial. Participants included parents of Latino preschoolers who reported child diet quality at baseline, 4-month, 7-month, 12-month, and 13-month follow-up. At each timepoint parents responded to a 28-item child dietary questionnaire (CDQ), based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) dietary module, which generated the number of times/day that a child ate each of 28 foods in the past month. These 28 items were then used to create a total standardized child diet quality index (possible range 0-100), using a percent of maximum method. Parents were asked to complete three 24-hour diet recalls at the 13-month follow-up, from which the 2015 Healthy Eating Index (HEI) was derived. Construct validity was evaluated by Spearman's rank correlations between the new child diet quality index and the 2015 HEI at the 13-month follow-up. Test-retest reliability was assessed by intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) for sequential pairs of time points.
resultsAmong 71 eligible parent-child pairs, mean child age was 4.2 (SD = 0.8) years, 50.7% of children were female, and mean child body mass index (BMI) was 17.8 (SD = 2.0) kg/m
conclusionThe new approach for calculating a measure of overall diet quality from the previously-validated 28-item dietary questionnaire demonstrated modest construct validity. When time and resources are limited, this new measure of overall diet quality may be an appropriate choice among low-income, Latino preschoolers.
