Dietary contributions of food outlets by urbanization level in the US population aged 2 years and older-NHANES 2013-2018.

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
backgroundDifferences in food access, availability, affordability, and dietary intake are influenced by the food environment, which includes outlets where foods are obtained. These differences between food outlets within rural and urban food environments in the United States are not well understood.
objectivesThe aim of this analysis is to describe the contribution of foods and beverages from 6 outlets-grocery stores, convenience stores, full-service restaurants, quick-service restaurants, schools, and other outlets-to the total energy intake and Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015 scores in the United States population, by urbanization level (nonmetropolitan statistical areas [MSAs], small-to-medium MSAs, and large MSAs).
methodsData from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2018 were used. Dietary intake from one 24-h dietary recall was analyzed by the outlet where a food or beverage was obtained and by urbanization. Linear regression, adjusted for sex, age, race and Hispanic origin, and family income, was used to predict the contribution of each food outlet to the total energy intake and HEI-2015 total and component scores by urbanization level.
resultsDuring 2013-2018, foods and beverages from grocery stores and quick-service and full-service restaurants contributed to 62.1%, 15.1%, and 8.5% of the energy intake, respectively. The percentage of energy intake from full- and quick-service restaurants increased with increasing urbanization level. HEI-2015 total scores increased with the increasing urbanization level overall (48.1 non-MSAs, 49.2 small-to-medium MSAs, and 51.3 large MSAs) for grocery stores (46.7 non-MSAs, 48.0 small-to-medium MSAs, and 50.6 large MSAs) and for quick-service restaurants (35.8 non-MSAs, 36.3 small-to-medium MSAs, and 37.5 large MSAs).
conclusionsGrocery stores and restaurants were the largest contributors of energy intake in urban and rural areas. Diet quality improved with increasing urbanization overall and for grocery stores and quick-service restaurants.
