Dietary Benefits of Pistachio Consumption in Mexico Modeled Using National Health Survey System (ENSANUT) 2012 and 2016 Data.
Article in Nutrients, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundEnergy-dense non-essential snacks are subject to 8% excise tax in Mexico.
objectivesTo model the impact on diet quality of (1) replacing energy-dense snacks with pistachios and (2) adding small amounts of pistachios to the diet.
methodsData came from the Mexico National Health and Nutrition survey (ENSANUT, by its Spanish acronym) 2012 (
resultsEnergy-dense foods, mostly sweet, accounted for about 20% of daily energy. Modeled diets with pistachios and mixed nuts/seeds were much lower in added sugars (<8% of dietary energy) and in sodium (<550 mg/day) and were higher in protein, fiber, mono- and polyunsaturated fats, potassium, and magnesium (
conclusionsModeled diets with pistachios replacing energy-dense snack foods had less added sugars and sodium and more protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Adding small amounts of pistachios also led to better diets. Pistachios are a healthy snack and can be an integral component of healthy diets.
