Providing medically tailored groceries and food resource coaching through the charitable food system to patients of a safety-net clinic in Dallas, Texas: a randomised controlled trial protocol.
Article in BMJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06242808 (Medically Tailored Groceries and Food Resource Coaching for Patients of a Safety-net Clinic), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
introductionLinking patients living with chronic, diet-related diseases and food insecurity to charitable food assistance, medically tailored groceries (MTGs) and food resource coaching may empower patients to better manage their health in a way that is economically sustainable. This protocol paper describes the implementation of a study evaluating MTGs and food resource coaching in a food pantry setting. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: A randomised controlled trial whereby patients of a safety-net health centre will be screened for The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) and study eligibility. Eligible patients will be randomised to receive 4 months of usual pantry services (control), MTGs (intervention 1) or MTGs and food resource coaching (intervention 2) from a colocated food pantry. Measures collected monthly include adherence, fidelity and food selections from the pantry. Measures collected at baseline and follow-up include food and nutrition security, diet quality, household resiliency, loneliness and overall well-being. Qualitative interviews (n=60) will be conducted preintervention and postintervention. Analyses will include multiple regression models to analyse changes from baseline to follow-up as well as changes between groups over time. Deductive thematic analysis of qualitative data will be conducted. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This study was approved by the UT Southwestern Medical Center Institutional Review Board (STU-2023-1166) and the Parkland Health Office of Research Administration. This is protocol version two, modification approved on 3 June 2024. Findings will be disseminated through academic conferences, journals and to the public. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT06242808.
