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

Introduction: Adolescence is a critical developmental stage during which dietary behaviors have profound impacts on physical health, mental well-being, and academic performance. Objective: The objective of this study was to examine the associations between diet quality and academic performance, body image perceptions, and demographic factors. Methods: Results: The analysis showed that 42.7 of % students possess a moderate diet and 57.3% possessed a poor diet. Diet quality was significantly associated with class grade, age, gender, socioeconomic status, body image and academic performance ( Conclusion: The findings present an urgent need for specific nutritional education and interventions in schools, in particular, among high-risk and vulnerable groups. Enhancing teenage diets can impact their psychological conditions, intellectual growth, and overall school performance.
