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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundFood insecurity and poor dietary intake contribute to health disparities, particularly among socioeconomically disadvantaged populations. Produce prescription programs aim to improve access to fruits and vegetables (F&V) for those with diet-sensitive conditions, but comparative effectiveness data are limited.

objectiveTo compare the impact of two produce prescription strategies, NutriConnect Credit (grocery coupons) and NutriConnect Delivery (home-delivered F&V boxes), on dietary intake, food security, and health outcomes among socioeconomically disadvantaged populations who have been recently hospitalized with diet-sensitive conditions.

methodsIn this three-arm pilot trial, recently hospitalized adults with food or financial insecurity and elevated cardiovascular risk were randomized (1:1:1) to Credit, Delivery, or enhanced usual care. The primary outcome is between group difference in change in F&V intake at 6 months. Secondary outcomes include food security and self-reported health-related quality of life. Implementation outcomes are assessed using the PRISM/RE-AIM framework.

conclusionNutriConnect seeks to provide evidence on the effectiveness and feasibility of two produce prescription strategies to inform scalable "Food is Medicine" programs targeting nutrition-related health disparities. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT06263751.
