Beyond "What Should I Eat to Get Better?": Medical Literacy, Dietary Narratives, and Supportive Nutrition in Hematologic Diseases.
Article in JMA journal, 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
Patients newly diagnosed with hematologic diseases frequently ask, "What should I eat to get better?" This question reflects both a deeply rooted societal narrative linking lifestyle to recovery and a desire for personal agency in moments of vulnerability. Nutrition remains an essential component of supportive care. However, for most malignant and clonal hematologic disorders, there is limited clinical evidence that specific diets or commercially marketed supplements alter disease biology or replace standard therapy. In the digital era, dietary narratives are amplified by social media, online advertising, and commercial interests, increasing the risk of misinformation and exploitation. We argue that clinicians and professional societies should strengthen public medical literacy, clearly distinguish supportive nutrition from disease-modifying therapy, and proactively protect patients from misleading health claims.
