The association between dietary creatine intake and cancer in U.S. adults: insights from NHANES 2007-2018.
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
Background: Creatine has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory effects. However, its impact on tumors remains uncertain. Methods: This study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2007 to 2018 to investigate the relationship between dietary creatine intake and cancer in American adults. A total of 25,879 participants aged 20 years and older were included, and their medical information, dietary creatine intake, and covariates were collected. Multiple logistic regression models were used to assess the relationships between age, dietary creatine intake, and cancer risk. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis explored the nonlinear relationships between dietary creatine intake, age, and cancer prevalence. Results: RCS analysis revealed a linear, negative association between dietary creatine intake and cancer risk. For each standard deviation (SD) increase in dietary creatine intake, cancer risk decreased by 5% (adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.91-0.99, Conclusion: These findings suggest that higher dietary creatine intake may reduce cancer risk in a nationally representative adult population. Further prospective studies are needed to clarify the relationship between dietary creatine intake and cancer risk.
