Assessment of Dominant Dietary Patterns in Hemodialysis Patients Using Factor Analysis Method and Their Relationship With Anthropometric Indices and Metabolic Parameters: An Analytical Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Nutrition and metabolic insights, 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
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) often progresses to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), requiring interventions like dialysis. Nutrition plays a key role in CKD management by affecting metabolic and anthropometric outcomes. This study assessed dominant dietary patterns in hemodialysis patients using factor analysis and their relationships with anthropometric and metabolic parameters. This cross-sectional study included 300 adult hemodialysis patients selected through systematic sampling from dialysis centers in Ahvaz, Iran. Dietary intake was evaluated using a validated 168-item Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Principal Component Analysis (PCA) identified 3 dietary patterns: Western, Mixed, and Traditional. Anthropometric indices (BMI, waist circumference) and metabolic parameters (lipid profiles, renal markers) were assessed. Multiple linear regression adjusted for confounders was applied. The Western Pattern was positively associated with higher BMI (+1.41 kg/m
