1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Ultraprocessed foods are deeply ingrained in US culture, and challenging the social acceptance of feeding children ultraprocessed foods is a priority. We used photovoice among a sample of mothers of preschool-aged children (n = 25) to assess their perceptions of the local food environment. Participants had 2 weeks before and after a nutrition education session to take photographs. Participants submitted 814 photographs of the local food environment, and mothers participated in 8 focus group discussions, each with 5 to 8 participants. After the education session, participants questioned the prevalence and marketing of ultraprocessed foods and discussed the need for change, thus signaling proactive attitudes.
