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

backgroundThe acquisition of healthy nutrition habits plays an important role in the solution of gastrointestinal symptoms, and it was recently shown that the cooking skills were the main determinant in the development of these behaviors. Accordingly, this study was planned and conducted with an aim to investigate the relationship between gastrointestinal symptoms and cooking skills.

methodsThis cross-sectional study included 328 individuals aged 18-35 years with 84.1% female, 15.9% male. Descriptive information, food consumption records, cooking skills and gastrointestinal symptom scale scores of the individuals were recorded by the researchers by means of face-to-face interviews.

resultsThe gastrointestinal symptoms and cooking skills scale scores were 38.75 ± 15.74 and 157.95 ± 37.18, respectively. Higher gastrointestinal symptom scale scores were associated with lower daily protein, dietary fiber, and vitamin B6, B12, and C intake (p < 0.05). Abdominal pain status was negatively associated with total score of cooking skills scale and cooking method, food preparation skills, and meal planning-preparation subscale scores, where reflux status were negatively associated with cooking skills total scale score and cooking method, meal planning-preparation, and label reading subscale scores, and diarrhea status was negatively associated with label reading subscale score (p < 0.05).

conclusionsGastrointestinal symptoms may affect daily protein, dietary fiber and vitamin B
