Experiences of Racial Discrimination and Periconceptional Diet Quality.

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
backgroundRacism is a key determinant of perinatal health disparities. Poor diet may contribute to this effect, but research on racism and dietary patterns is limited.
objectiveWe aimed to describe the relation between experiences of racial discrimination and adherence to the 2015‒2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
methodsWe used data from a prospective pregnancy cohort study conducted at 8 United States medical centers (2010‒2013). At 6‒13 weeks of gestation, 10,038 nulliparous people with singleton pregnancies were enrolled. Participants completed a Block food frequency questionnaire, assessing usual diet in the 3 mo around conception, and the Krieger Experiences of Discrimination Scale, assessing the number of situational domains (e.g., at school and on the street) in which participants ever experienced racial discrimination. Alignment of dietary intake with the 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans was assessed using the Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015.
resultsThe study showed that 49%, 44%, 35%, and 17% of the Asian, Black, Hispanic, and White participants reported experiences of racial discrimination in any domain. Most participants experienced discrimination in 1 or 2 situational domains. There were no meaningful differences in HEI-2015 total or component scores in any racial or ethnic group according to count of self-reported domains in which individuals experienced discrimination. For example, mean total scores were 57‒59 among Black, 61‒66 among White, 61‒63 among Hispanic, and 66‒69 among Asian participants across the count of racial discrimination domains.
conclusionsThis null association stresses the importance of going beyond interpersonal racial discrimination to consider the institutions, systems, and practices affecting racialized people to eliminate persistent inequalities in diet and perinatal health.
