Women's empowerment and nutritional outcomes in India.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Women's nutritional health is significantly influenced by their social standing, especially in low- and middle-income countries where patriarchal structures restrict women's decision-making. In India, women have limited autonomy over personal and domestic matters, which restricts their decision-making power and access to resources. In this context, this study investigates the relationship between women's empowerment and their nutritional health in India. We used nationally representative data from the most recent iteration of the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5), 2019-2021. Women's autonomy was measured using a composite Women's Autonomy Index (WAI), encompassing decision-making power, asset ownership, and freedom of movement. Logistic regression models were used to estimate the association between WAI and underweight (BMI < 18.5 kg/m
