Prevalent low Mediterranean diet adherence and low folate status in a Spanish Km 0 Mediterranean coast population.
Article in Current research in food science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: Folate, vitamin B Objective: To assess intake and status of these B-vitamins in an adult Mediterranean population unexposed to mandatory food fortification or B-vitamin supplementation, and to examine the associations with Mediterranean diet adherence (MDA). Methods: A representative sample of adults aged 18-77 (n = 740) provided fasting blood samples and 3-day dietary records. MDA was assessed using the Trichopoulou score. Plasma folate, red blood cell folate (RBCF) and plasma vitamin B Results: Intake below average requirement was observed in 39.5 % (for folate), 6.5 % (for vitamin B Conclusions: High vs low MDA was associated with better folate intake and status but this was not true for the other vitamins. Only 17.4 % of the population had high MDA and folate deficiency still occurred in this group. A fortification policy may be required, to prevent folate deficiency in the population.
