The association between telework and household food insufficiency in the United States.
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 analyse the association between telework and household food insufficiency in the United States.
designCross-sectional study. Probit regression models were used to examine the association between telework (having at least one teleworking household member) and food insufficiency. Sensitivity analyses were conducted to examine the relationship across income levels and time periods.
settingUnited States Census Bureau's Household Pulse Survey, Phases 3·1 to 3·10 (April 2021 to October 2023).
participants326 876 households with income below 200 % of the federal poverty line (FPL).
resultsTelework was associated with a 4·4 percentage point decrease in the probability of food insufficiency among households with low income (predicted probabilities: 20·3 % (telework)
conclusionsTelework is associated with reduced household food insufficiency in the United States. Policies and interventions aimed at promoting telework adoption, and equitable telework opportunities may serve as valuable tools in addressing food hardship and advancing public health goals.
