Association between ultra-processed food consumption and inflammation: insights from the STANISLAS cohort.
Article in European journal of nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
purposeHigh consumption of ultra-processed food (UPF) is associated with an increased risk of developing chronic diseases. Inflammation may be one of the underlying mechanisms behind this association. However, only a limited number of studies have investigated the association between UPF consumption and a few selected inflammation biomarkers, yielding inconsistent results. This study aimed to assess the cross-sectional association between UPF consumption (as a whole and 10 sub-categories), and 78 circulating proteins related to inflammation.
methodsThe present study included 1594 adult participants from the STANISLAS cohort. UPF consumption was estimated using the NOVA classification, and linear regression models were used to assess their association with circulating proteins.
resultsUPFs accounted for 28% of the total energy intake and 5.7 servings on average per day. In the unadjusted model, 15 circulating proteins had a significant association with UPF consumption. After adjustment, only (FGF-19) was significantly associated with UPF consumption (β = - 0.02[- 0.03; - 0.003]).
conclusionUPF consumption was negatively associated with Fibroblast Growth Factor 19 (FGF-19) serum levels. When considering UPF sub-categories, no circulating proteins were associated with dairy products and dairy desserts. Of note, circulating proteins were differentially associated depending on the sub-category of UPF. Further studies are needed to better understand the link between UPF and inflammation.
