Evaluation of the Carbon Footprint, Water Footprint, Nutrient Profiles and Cost of Sustainable Menus Planned With Digital Modeling.
Article in Food science & nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the sustainability of digital program menus (DPMs) and compare them with the Turkish National Menu Planning Guide (TNMPG) and internet-accessible menus (IAM). A menu planning program was developed in Microsoft Excel, which also calculates the sustainability criteria (carbon footprint, water footprint, NRF 9.3, SAIN-LIM and cost) of the menus with the recommendations of the TNMPG. The digital menus were compared with the sustainability criteria of the TNMPG sample menus and menus accessed from the internet. DPM was found to be similar to the sample menus of the TNMPG in terms of sustainability features. All the meals on the menus were similar in terms of their carbon footprint (
