Food industry's interactions with nutrition professionals in Australia: a survey.
Article in Public health nutrition, 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
objectiveTo identify interactions between the food, beverage and nutrition supplement industry and nutrition professionals (NP) in Australia.
designThe study employed a cross-sectional analysis of interactions by using an online survey including open and closed questions.
settingAustralia.
participants156 practicing NP were recorded, 118 of them included in the analysis, 86 of which were dietitians.
resultsAmong respondents, eighty-eight (75 %) reported having previously received promotional material from industry, and seventy-four (66 %) have attended industry-sponsored educational events for professional development. Fifty-six (47 %) reported receiving gifts from industry in the past year. Of those who have received promotional or educational material, eleven (12 %) found it not useful at all, while others declared it slightly to extremely useful. Further analysis revealed that professional bodies and networks acted as intermediaries between industry and NP and that there were differences in judgement based on the specific industry they receive the material from.
conclusionThe Australian food, beverage and nutrition supplement industry is attempting to actively engage with NP to promote their products through trusted sources. NP' opinions on this vary, and further research is needed to examine the scope and impact of these interactions.
