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

Inadequate fruit and vegetable consumption is associated with increased risk of chronic disease. Yet, many individuals consume below the recommended intake according to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA). This study aimed to examine the association of adherence to the DGA (2020-2025) recommendations for fruit and vegetable (FV) intake of 1.5-2 cups of fruits and 2-3 cups of vegetables daily for adults among caretakers with a child(ren) living in households eligible for a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 85 caretakers with children in an urban neighborhood of low-income in the Bronx, New York (NY). Log-binomial regressions demonstrated that having more children (RR 1.36; 95% CI 1.15-1.59), younger children (RR 1.22; 95% CI 1.07-1.39), or children participating in a school lunch program (RR 1.47; 95% CI 1.16-1.85) was positively associated with caretakers' probability of adhering to the DGA recommendations for FV intake. Our study highlights the eating behaviors of families living with children ≤ 10 years of age, many of whom were participating in a school lunch program, and underscores the dietary benefits associated with these characteristics.
