Dietary nutrient intake and cancer presence: evidence from a cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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: While the role of specific nutrients in cancer is established, associations between comprehensive between dietary nutrient intake and cancer presence remain underexplored. This cross-sectional study investigates global dietary nutrient profiles in relation to solid and blood cancers. Methods: A total of 42,732 mobile adults from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 2001-2023) were enrolled in this study. The potential associations of dietary intakes of 34 nutrients and 4 common trace components with cancer presence were investigated by weighted logistic regression and restricted cubic spline. Results: Higher intake of saturated fatty acid (OR = 1.1082, 95% CI: 1.0110-1.2146), Conclusion: Specific dietary nutrients, notably saturated fats, carotenoids, and vitamin K, are associated with increased cancer presence, whereas phosphorus intake is associated with the reduced cancer presence. Due to the cross-sectional nature of the study and the measurement of dietary intake after cancer diagnosis, a causal relationship could not be established. These findings underscore the need for longitudinal studies to establish causality and inform dietary interventions in cancer management.
