Region-specific and nutritionally adequate dietary transitions can bolster sustainability and socioeconomic benefits.
Article in Nature food, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Shifting towards plant-based diets and reducing ruminant-based food consumption offers broad benefits but varies across regions. Here we use an integrated assessment model to explore sustainable dietary transitions under diverse consumers, behavioural adoption and regional uncertainties. Increasing plant protein intake or lowering ruminant reliance can support nutritionally adequate diets while improving calorie intake. These dietary shifts also reduce greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution-related mortality, water scarcity and food expenditure. In addition, they promote re/afforestation, biodiversity and lower mitigation costs under Nationally Determined Contributions and Long-Term Targets climate policies. Regional strategies prove more effective than uniform global targets. Our results highlight the importance of supportive policies to enable dietary change, demonstrating the dual public health and environmental gains of sustainable consumption patterns.
