Association between dietary inflammatory index and gallstones in US adults.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Introduction: Previous studies have found that diet's inflammatory potential is related to various diseases. However, little is known about its relationship with gallstones. The present study aims to investigate the relationship between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and gallstones. Methods: Data were obtained from the 2003-2020 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). We used the nearest neighbor propensity score matching (PSM) with a ratio of 1:1 to reduce selection bias. Logistic regression models estimated the association between DII and gallstones. The non-linear relationship was explored with restricted cubic splines (RCS). BMI subgroup stratification was performed to explore further the connection between DII and gallstones in different populations. Results: 10,779 participants were included. Before and after PSM, gallstone group individuals had higher DII scores than non-gallstone group individuals ( Conclusion: Higher DII score is positively associated with the risk of gallstones, particularly in overweight or obese population, and this relationship is a "J"-shaped non-linear relationship. These results further support that avoiding or reducing a pro-inflammatory diet can be an intervention strategy for gallstone management, particularly in the overweight or obese population.
