Associations between dietary inflammatory index with menopause and hysterectomy: findings from a national health and nutrition examination survey.
Article in BMC public health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
backgroundAlthough the dietary inflammatory index (DII) plays a vital role in human health, the association between the DII and women's menopausal status is still unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the associations of the energy-adjusted DII (E-DII) with natural menopause and hysterectomy among women aged 20-65 years in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study to assess the associations of the E-DII with natural menopause and hysterectomy using multivariate regression models. To further explore the effect of the E-DII on early natural menopause, subgroup analyses were performed. Additionally, the correlations between the E-DII score and age at menopause or hysterectomy were evaluated via Spearman correlation analysis.
resultsData from 9469 women were included in this study. After full adjustment, we observed a positive association between the E-DII and early natural menopause. The odds ratios (ORs) for quartile 4 and quartile 1 were 1.552 (95% CI: 1.043, 2.309) and 1.328 (0.767, 2.301), respectively. We also found positive evidence that the E-DII was associated with hysterectomy. The OR was 1.487 (1.069, 2.069) in quartile 3 versus quartile 1 and 1.729 (1.198, 2.497) for quartile 4 versus quartile 1. The correlation coefficients of the E-DII between the ages of menopause and hysterectomy patients were - 0.12 and - 0.11, respectively.
conclusionsOur findings suggest that a higher E-DII strongly influences early natural menopause and hysterectomy, likely leading to their earlier onset. However, longitudinal studies or randomized clinical trials are necessary to further confirm our findings.
