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

Objective: To investigate the factors influencing nutritional literacy among rural elderly individuals in northern Sichuan based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB). Methods: A convenience sampling method was employed to recruit 311 elderly participants (aged ≥60 years) from Sanlin Village (Cangxi County, Guangyuan City), Puji Village (Yilong County, Nanchong City), and Luhua Village (Bazhou District, Bazhong City). The survey instruments included general demographic questionnaires, the nutrition attitude scale (NAS), the multidimensional scale of perceived social support (MSPSS), the instrumental activities of daily living scale (IADLS), the general self-efficacy scale (GSES), and the nutrition literacy questionnaire for the Chinese elderly (NLQ-E). Data were analyzed using SPSS 26.0 and AMOS 23.0. Results: Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that education level positively predicted nutritional literacy (β = 0.126, Conclusion: Elderly individuals in northern Sichuan with more positive nutrition attitudes, higher perceived social support, and stronger daily living abilities demonstrated higher nutritional literacy. Self-efficacy partially mediated the influence of nutrition attitude and daily living ability on nutritional literacy.
