The association of meal-specific food-based dietary inflammatory index with cardiovascular risk factors and inflammation in a sample of Iranian adults.
Article in BMC endocrine disorders, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the association of meals-specific food-based dietary inflammatory index (FDII), with cardiovascular (CVD) risk factors and inflammation among Iranian adults.
methodsIn this cross-sectional study, we recruited 816 participants living in Tehran via two-staged cluster sampling. Three non-consecutive 24-h dietary recalls (two working days and one day off) were obtained from individuals to specify the main meals and meal-specific FDIIs. Anthropometric measures were done. Insulin and high-sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were measured. Multiple linear regressions were used to investigate the association of FDII with Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), hs-CRP, Triglyceride Glucose Index (TyG), and Lipid Accumulation Product Index (LAP).
resultsThe range of FDIIs for breakfast, lunch, and dinner were (-2.47,1.98), (-2.66,3.23) and (-4.09,3.13) in order, and the mean age was 42.2 ± 10.5 years. We found that there was no significant association between FDII and hs-CRP level in the three meals (β = -0.003; 95% CI: -0.030, 0.025 for breakfast,β = -0.020; 95% CI: -0.041, 0.001 for lunch, and β = 0.006; 95% CI: -0.016, 0.028 for dinner) after adjusting for age, sex, education, occupation, maritage, physical activity, smoking, morningness-eveningness score, energy, body mass index, and other FDIIs. Also, we found no significant association between breakfast, lunch, and dinner-specific FDII and HOMA-IR (β = -0.368, -0.223, 0.122), TyG index (β = -0.009, 0.060, -0.057) and LAP (β = 2.320, -0.278, -0.297).
conclusionsWe found no associations between meal-based FDII scores and CVD and inflammation. Further research of prospective nature is needed to confirm these findings.
