Functions of Dietary Restriction and Unique Associations With Mood States Among Young Adults With Food Insecurity: Findings From an Ecological Momentary Assessment Study.

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
objectiveLimited research has examined the function or consequences of dietary restriction among individuals for whom it may serve differential purposes, such as those with food insecurity. Indeed, food insecurity may uniquely relate to differential functions for engaging in dietary restriction, which may relate to subsequent changes in mood; this study sought to assess these associations.
methodA subsample of 77 young adults from the Minnesota-based EAT (Eating and Activity over Time) cohort with food insecurity (M
resultsAcross a 14-day EMA period, 29.9% of observations involved dietary restriction due to financial functions only, 6.2% involved dietary restriction due to both financial and weight-control functions, and 3.0% involved restriction for weight-control functions only. Compared to instances of no dietary restriction, overall negative mood was higher after engaging in dietary restriction for both functions (B = 0.43; p = 0.002), but not for financial (B = 0.12; p = 0.14) or weight-control (B = 0.30; p = 0.06) functions only. DISCUSSION: These findings suggest dual-purpose dietary restriction (i.e., for both financial and weight-control) is common in young adults with food insecurity and may influence mood; thus, it may be an important intervention target.
