Nutrition Incentives Associated With Improved Outcomes: 2020-2023 Results From the U.S Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program.

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
Introduction: Populations with low income and food insecurity report low fruit and vegetable intake and high associated diet-related disease. The Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program supports grantees to implement nutrition incentive projects nationwide to provide individuals participating in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program with incentives to facilitate the purchase and consumption of fruits and vegetables. This study examines the associations between the length of Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program nutrition incentive participation and fruit and vegetable intake, food insecurity, and perceived health status. Study design: Nutrition incentives were available to eligible participants during grantees' multiyear award period between 2020 and 2023. Sixty-five Gus Schumacher Nutrition Incentive Program grantees collected cross-sectional surveys from a convenience sample of nutrition incentive project participants. Settings/participants: A total of 23,736 adult Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program recipients (aged ≥18 years) who participated in a nutrition incentive project and completed the cross-sectional survey were involved. Intervention: Nutrition incentive projects varied in implementation at grocery stores, farmers markets, and other food retail spanning across all regions of the U.S. Main outcome measures: Main outcome measures included fruit and vegetable intake, food insecurity, and perceived health status by length of participation. Results: Participants in nutrition incentives at >6 months (cups per day=2.91) demonstrated significantly higher fruit and vegetable intake than first-time participants (cups per day=2.73) and those ≤6 months (cups per day=2.76). Significance ( Conclusions: Nutrition incentives appear to increase fruit and vegetable intake, reduce food insecurity, and result in better perceived health. They are a meaningful public health intervention to address key differences in diet-related outcomes.
