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

objectiveThe Dietary Obesity Prevention Score (DOS) is a dietary assessment tool previously linked to obesity. This study aimed to explore the association between DOS and selected cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors.

designA cross-sectional analysis was conducted among 1,332 adult employees of Tehran University of Medical Sciences. Dietary intake was assessed using a validated food frequency questionnaire (FFQ), and DOS was calculated based on established criteria. Serum levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) LDL-C(, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglyceride (TG) and blood sugar (BS) levels were measured using standard commercial kits. Binary logistic regression models were used to examine the association between DOS and CVD risk factors.

settingTehran University of Medical Sciences.

participantsOne thousand three hundred thirty-two adults university employees.

resultsThe mean age and body mass index (BMI) of participants were 42.8 years and 27.2 kg/m

conclusionsHigher adherence to the Dietary Obesity Prevention Score may be linked to lower odds of hypertension and low HDL-C. Further research is warranted to confirm these findings.
