Factors influencing nutrition education in elementary schools: A qualitative study.
Article in Health education journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Curriculum-based nutrition education is a common strategy to build food literacy skills and promote lifelong healthy eating. While past research has reported on the barriers teachers face when teaching about nutrition, very few recent studies have been published on the topic. This paper aimed to explore some of the views, barriers and facilitators that teachers face when teaching nutrition in elementary schools. Methods: A descriptive qualitative research study was conducted among elementary school teachers in Ontario, Canada, using a semi-structured interview guide. The guide was informed by the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research, and then validated and pilot tested. Two independent researchers inductively coded and thematically analysed the transcripts. Results: Participants ( Conclusions: Enhancing teacher training, resources and support while prioritising nutrition in the school curriculum is crucial for effective and equitable nutrition education in Canadian elementary schools. Addressing barriers and leveraging the facilitators identified in this study are essential to improve curriculum-based nutrition education provision.
