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
Older individuals generally have decreased food intake owing to physical, social, psychological, and behavioral limitations. However, the characteristics of food and nutrient intake resulting from these limitations are poorly organized. Organizing knowledge for practical application in older adults is necessary when considering nutrition care strategies. This review aimed to characterize food and nutrient intake according to these exposure factors in older individuals. This systematic review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis guidelines (PROSPERO, CRD42024582151). MEDLINE and Web of Science were searched in September 2024 using the following inclusion criteria: community-dwelling older adults aged ≥65 years (participants); factors contributing to physical, social, psychological, or behavioral limitations affecting food and nutrient intake (exposure); food and/or nutrient intake, dietary patterns, and overall diet quality (outcomes); and cross-sectional and cohort studies (study design). Among the 2,354 studies screened, 29 studies were analyzed. These included studies addressed the following exposure factors: oral function and physical activity (physical); economic status, marital status, household size, and educational attainment (social); depressive symptoms (psychological); and food security, nutritional knowledge, and cooking skills (behavioral). Reduced oral function was associated with lower intakes of meat, fish, legumes, vegetables, and fruits. Low economic status and educational level were associated with poor diet quality. However, there was limited research characterizing the dietary intakes of individuals with other factors, such as poor cooking skills or decreased sense of taste and smell. Further research is needed.
