Barriers and drivers to adopting a plant-rich Mediterranean diet in a high-income country: A qualitative 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
Eating a plant-rich diet is considered essential for human and planetary health and the Mediterranean diet offers a realistic way to increase this. Gaining greater knowledge of the barriers and drivers to consuming the Mediterranean diet in residents of high-income countries was the aim of the current study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 adults residing in Australia who ate either an omnivore or plant-rich diet. Using reflexive thematic analysis (RTA) and the behaviour change wheel (BCW), an in-depth exploration of these barriers and drivers was conducted. Key barriers were: (1) changing ingrained meat habits, (2) lack of physical and mental availability, (3) household influences, (4) meat perceived as tasty and Mediterranean diet foods as bland and (5) minimal knowledge of the nutritional benefits of Mediterranean diet foods. Our findings emphasize the need to consider multiple individual and environmental barriers when designing behaviour change interventions to increase Mediterranean diet adoption.
