1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundCoeliac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder treated with a gluten-free diet (GFD), requiring substantial changes in food choices and eating habits. This study explores the challenges faced by adults living with CD focusing on the theme of food literacy (FL), namely functional, relational, and system FL competencies. METHODOLOGY: A secondary analysis of data obtained through an online questionnaire was conducted. Adults living with CD in Québec, Canada and subscribed to Coeliaque Québec's newsletter were invited to complete a questionnaire. Using the critical incident method, respondents described a negative experience in their journey living with CD. Content analysis was done in a deductive and inductive manner, based on the 2022 Slater Food Literacy framework adapted to CD.

resultsA total of 743 patients were included in the analysis. The qualitative analysis resulted in 11 codes under the three themes of FL. Patients reported challenges in finding reliable nutrition and medical information, managing a GFD in social settings, explaining CD and preventing gluten contamination, preparing balanced gluten-free (GF) meals, and making informed food choices. Patients reported on the negative impact of the GFD on their relationship with food, and how CD inhibits conviviality. Finally, patients addressed the need to advocate for GF food access in grocery stores and restaurants.

conclusionsThis study highlights the broad impacts of effectively managing CD and the GFD on patients' functional, relational and system FL competencies. Future research should explore how social and economic factors further interact with FL competencies of adults living with CD.
