Racial and Ethnic Differences in Diet Quality by Education Level: Diminished Returns.
Article in Preventing chronic disease, 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
Higher education is correlated with healthy eating, which prevents chronic disease. Recent evidence suggests that racial and ethnic minority populations with higher education levels consume fewer healthy foods than their non-Hispanic White counterparts. We analyzed data on 19,591 participants of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2011-2018). Linear regression models identified racial and ethnic differences in Healthy Eating Index (HEI)-2015 scores within categories of education level. Non-Hispanic Black adults with a bachelor's degree or higher had lower HEI-2015 scores (β = -1.69; SE = 0.79; P = .03) compared with non-Hispanic White adults with the same education level. These findings suggest that non-Hispanic Black populations in the US may experience diminished returns on educational investment.
