The Mediating Effect of Central Obesity on the Association between Dietary Quality, Dietary Inflammation Level and Low-Grade Inflammation-Related Serum Inflammatory Markers in Adults.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
To date, few studies have explored the role of central obesity on the association between diet quality, measured by the health eating index (HEI), inflammatory eating index (DII), and low-grade inflammation-related serum inflammatory markers. In this paper, we use the data from the 2015-2018 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) to explore this. Dietary intakes were measured during two 24-h dietary recall interviews and using USDA Food Pattern Equivalence Database (FPED) dietary data. Serum inflammatory markers were obtained from NHANES Laboratory Data. Generalized structural equation models (GSEMs) were used to explore the mediating relationship. Central obesity plays a significant mediating role in the association between HEI-2015 and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), mediating 26.87% of the associations between the two; it also mediates 15.24% of the associations between DII and hs-CRP. Central obesity plays a mediating role in 13.98% of the associations between HEI-2015 and white blood cells (WBC); it also mediates 10.83% of the associations between DII and WBC. Our study suggests that central obesity plays a mediating role in the association of dietary quality with low-grade inflammation-related serum inflammatory markers (hs-CRP and WBC).
