Low Fruit and Vegetable Consumption in Areas of High Cholangiocarcinoma Risk in Thailand.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThis study aimed to determine the proportion of fruit and vegetable (FV) consumption in regions of Thailand with the highest risk for cholangiocarcinoma (CCA).
methodsA multi-stage sampling method was employed to recruit participants. One sub-district per district was selected using random sampling. Simple random sampling was used to select individuals based on age range and sex, resulting in a final sample size of 744 participants. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. FV consumption was assessed through a 24-hour recall interview, recording the types and quantities consumed in three meals. Consumption proportions were calculated by comparing the amounts of each FV consumed. Household consumption units were converted to grams. Descriptive statistics, including number, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, were calculated. The total amount of FV consumed across all meals was compared to the recommended daily intake of ≥400 grams. The prevalence rate of FV consumption was also calculated. Results: The prevalence rate of FV consumption in Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand, was 11.30 per 100,000 people. The highest frequency of FV consumption was 1-3 days/week, reported by 66.93% of participants. Most respondents (61.43%) exhibited excellent knowledge regarding FV consumption. Similarly, the mean score for attitude regarding the health benefits of FV consumption was 3.10±0.18.
conclusionThis study highlights insufficient FV consumption, associated with the high incidence of CCA, in the studied region. To mitigate the risk of CCA, relevant organizations should implement campaigns to raise awareness about the importance of FV consumption through social media communication and other channels.
