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.

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.

Abstract

Introduction: The effects of front-of-package nutrition labels among Latino and Hispanic ("Latine") adults in the US, including those with limited English proficiency, remains largely unknown. We examined the impact of different types of labels among Latine consumers and whether effects differed by English proficiency. Study design: Online randomized trial. Setting/participants: 3,053 Latine US adults (49% limited English proficiency). Intervention: Participants viewed one of three labels: Main outcome measures: Participants viewed three frozen pies, three frozen pizzas, and three frozen meals displaying randomly assigned labels and identified the healthiest and least healthy product within each group (based on nutrient content). Results: Text high-in labels (49% correct) led to higher correct identification of the least healthy foods compared to the numerical labels (44%, Conclusions: High-in labels helped Latine consumers identify unhealthy foods more than numerical labels, but only among those with high English proficiency. Future food labeling research should include participants with limited English proficiency. Trial registration: NCT06293963.
