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

Oral and systemic health constitute overall health. In recent years, dentists and physicians have acknowledged the relationship between these two areas of health. There are oral and systemic diseases that have similar risk factors. Fresh fruits and vegetables enhance oral and systemic health and the lack of these food products in the diet adversely affects both aspects of health. The availability, accessibility and acceptability of fresh fruits and vegetables were all assessed in Macon County, Alabama, using an observational research method. A Likert scale (1-4) was used to assess color, texture and smell of fresh fruits and vegetables. Within Macon County there are three grocery stores with the highest quality of fresh fruits and vegetables being in the town of Notasulga. With lack of availability, accessibility and acceptability of fresh fruits and vegetables in Macon County, residents are at a higher risk of experiencing adverse health outcomes. Strategies are needed to increase the factors that contribute to the consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables if overall health are expected to improve.
