Combining Culinary Medicine With Integrative Medicine in Medical Curriculum: A Novel Community-Centric Approach.
Review in American journal of lifestyle medicine, 2026. 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
Context: Historically, medical school curriculums have not addressed applications of medical nutrition therapy (MNT) in patient care plans. In 2020, an elective pilot lifestyle medicine course, "Food and Nutrition as Medicine (FANAM)," was implemented at Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine Carolinas (VCOM-Carolinas) using a community-centric model. Objective: Teach medical students skills in nutrition education, culinary techniques, patient-centered care through intersectional lenses of culture, available resources, and health literacy. Methods: FANAM's founders were a multidisciplinary team of physicians, a registered dietitian, a nurse and a dietetic technician. Twenty students were in the initial cohort. FANAM utilized physicians and community leaders as mentors who taught through hands-on and didactic exercises. Pre- and post-Likert scales assessed FANAM's impact on students' confidence in implementing patient-centered nutrition education. Wilcoxon Signed Rank Tests analyzed survey results with calculated Results: Qualitative assessments demonstrated that 100% of participants believed nutrition education beyond the standard curriculum was necessary. 95% of participants felt confident in their understanding of nutrition and ability to counsel standardized patients after course completion. Conclusion: These results indicate that FANAM provided opportunities for students to enhance both knowledge of MNT and practical applications of nutrition education to benefit patients.
