Adherence to Mediterranean diet and its association with multiple colonic polyps of unknown origin: a case-control study.

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
Introduction: Multiple colonic polyps do not have a genetic origin in most patients, and the cause of this phenotype remains elusive. Environmental factors, such as diet, could be related to this phenotype. Our aim was to investigate the relationship between the adherence to Mediterranean diet and multiple colonic polyps of unknown origin. Methods: A case-control pilot study was carried out with a sample of 38 individuals, including 23 cases with more than 10 adenomatous or serrated polyps from the national multicenter project EPIPOLIP and 15 healthy controls with normal colonoscopy. A validated Spanish version of the MEDAS questionnaire was administered to cases and controls. Results: Adherence to Mediterranean diet was higher in controls than in patients with multiple colonic polyps (MEDAS score: 8.6 ± 1.4 vs. 7.0 ± 1.6; Conclusion: Our results suggest that environmental factors play a role in the pathogenesis of this phenotype.
