Association of dietary flavonoid intake with incident atherosclerosis: cohort evidence in middle-aged and older adults.

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
Objective: Cardiovascular disease, largely driven by atherosclerosis, remains a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the associations of dietary intake of total flavonoids and their subclasses with the risk of incident atherosclerosis, post-atherosclerosis cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in a large prospective cohort. Methods: The study included 207,571 adults without baseline atherosclerosis from the UK Biobank. Risk factors were investigated using a three-level stepwise-adjusted Cox proportional hazards model, alongside subgroup analyses and subclass-specific analyses. Results: The prevalence of atherosclerosis showed a decreasing trend with increasing quartiles of total flavonoid intake (Q1: 0.75% vs. Q4: 0.48%, Conclusion: Higher consumption of foods rich in flavonoids-such as apples, berries, and tea-was associated with a lower risk of incident atherosclerosis. This inverse association was particularly pronounced among middle-aged and older adults aged 55 to 69. Therefore, incorporating more of these foods into daily diets may be a potential strategy to support cardiovascular health and reduce the burden of subsequent cardiovascular diseases.
