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.

Abstract

backgroundSustainable dietary patterns are considered essential for both public health and environmental protection. This study aimed to evaluate sustainable nutrition behaviors, adherence to the EAT-Lancet dietary recommendations, diet quality, and obesity indicators among university staff.

methodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted with 120 university staff members. Participants were recruited using a convenience sampling method. Sociodemographic data, anthropometric measurements, the Sustainable and Healthy Eating Behaviors Scale (SHEB), the EAT-Lancet Diet Score, and the International Diet Quality Index (DQI-I) were collected. Robust regression analysis was conducted to identify the predictors of the EAT-Lancet Diet Score.

resultsThe mean SHEB score was 134.3 ± 25. The median EAT-Lancet Diet Score and DQI-I were 9.0 (5.0-13.0) and 53.0 (33.0-69.0), respectively. A moderate positive correlation was found between the EAT-Lancet Diet Score and DQI-I (r = 0.586; p < 0.001). Higher SHEB scores were observed among participants with postgraduate education (p < 0.05). Negative associations were identified between the EAT-Lancet Diet Score and all anthropometric indicators, and between SHEB and BMI, waist (WC), and neck circumference (NC) (p < 0.05). Regression analysis showed that men had significantly lower EAT-Lancet Diet Scores than women (β = -1.084, 95% CI: -1.68 to -0.488, p = 0.001). Each one-unit increase in SHEB score was associated with a 0.016 unit increase in EAT-Lancet Diet Score (95% CI: 0.016 (0.005-0.028), p = 0.006).

conclusionsGender and sustainable nutrition behaviors appear to be associated with adherence to the EAT-Lancet dietary recommendations. These findings highlight the need to promote sustainable eating behaviors in educational settings to support public health and environmental goals.
