The effect of food insecurity on psychosocial aspects of academic achievement.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Introduction: Studies showed that food insecurity is associated with lower grade point average (GPA) in university students. However academic achievement should be investigated in psychosocial and multidimensional way. Therefore this study aimed to examine the stress mediated relationship between food insecurity and academic achievement, which is addressed from different perspectives. Methods: The study was conducted on 1,122 university students [seven cases were excluded as data-entry errors: four with implausible age values (2, 2, 167, 211 years) and three with implausible height values (16, 72, 104 cm)]. US Adult Food Security Survey Module, the Academic Success Inventory Scale for College Students, and the Perceived Stress Scale were applied to students. Results: Age was negatively associated with food insecurity [β = -0.143, OR = 0.87, 95% CI (0.79, 0.95), Discussion: These findings emphasize that interventions to improve student achievement should consider access to food, stress management, and psychosocial support components.
