Is participation in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program associated with physical food security among people aged 16 to 64 with disabilities in the U.S.?
Article in Disability and health journal, 2025. 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
backgroundThe nation's largest nutrition assistance program (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)) was designed to improve economic food security. People with disabilities may experience interactions of functional limitations with environmental conditions that limit access to food, regardless of income level or nutrition assistance receipt.
objectiveTest whether participation in SNAP is associated with physical food security (PFS), a new measure that quantifies the extent that individual physical functioning limitations such as limitations in lifting or walking reduce access to food.
methodsUsing data from the 2013-2018 National Health and Nutrition Survey (NHANES), we estimate the proportion of people aged 16 to 64 with disabilities in the U.S. who experience low or very low PFS and use logit regressions to test whether participation in SNAP is associated with level of PFS for working-age people with disabilities.
resultsIn testing a variety of fully adjusted logit regression models of PFS, including models that included interaction terms of disability and SNAP receipt and models that used alternative specifications of disability, we did not find evidence that SNAP receipt was associated with or served as a moderator of PFS for people with disabilities.
conclusionsThese findings highlight the importance of collaboration among disability, food, and nutrition policy and practice to identify home and community-based ways to improve PFS.
