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
This scoping review aims to identify evidence-based school nutrition interventions for implementation in Iran's dynamic economic, cultural, and socio-political environment. A review of published studies (2004-August 2024) using the PRISMA-ScR guidelines across 14 databases was conducted. The efficacy of various interventions reported significant positive changes at multiple levels: anthropometric, biological, and knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors related to healthy eating and lifestyle. Investigators carrying out research on "what works" in school-based nutrition education and general healthy lifestyle programs and services in the Islamic Republic of Iran have a host of challenges; however, much more research needs to be done. While there are few studies in this area of inquiry, outcomes on the nutrition interventions to date are impressive. The major challenges in improving school-based nutrition programs include the education of young women, establishing national standards for school food programs and education, and strategic advocacy by stakeholders to improve nutrition education in schools in Iran.
