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

objectiveTo determine the impact of a home-delivered, medically tailored grocery intervention on glycemic control and diet quality among participants with type 2 diabetes (T2D) experiencing food insecurity.

methodsA single-arm prepost study was conducted. One hundred one English, Spanish, or Marshallese-speaking adults were recruited from food pantries in Northwest Arkansas (from August 2021 to February 2023). Twelve weekly T2D-appropriate food boxes with diabetes self-management education and support materials were home-delivered. Primary outcomes measured at preintervention and postintervention included hemoglobin A1c and diet quality (i.e., Healthy Eating Index-2015).

resultsMixed-effects regressions controlling for age, sex, race/ethnicity, household size, education, and employment found hemoglobin A1c scores significantly decreased by 0.56% (units) at postintervention compared with preintervention (P = 0.01). No significant changes in Healthy Eating Index-2015 scores were found (P = 0.47). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Future research may build on this study's findings and explore mechanisms whereby medically tailored groceries can benefit people across communities experiencing high rates of food insecurity and T2D.
