Nutritional Problems in Neurodevelopmental Disorders: A Narrative Review.
Review in Current nutrition reports, 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
purpose of reviewThis review aims to provide a synthesized overview of dietary patterns and nutrition-related problems in individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders. The review focuses on studies addressing eating behaviors, nutritional difficulties, and intervention approaches in individuals diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), intellectual disability, and Down syndrome. Relevant studies were identified through systematic searches of PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science for articles published after 2010. Selection criteria included peer-reviewed studies examining sensory, behavioral, physiological, and environmental factors affecting dietary patterns. RECENT
findingsThe reviewed studies indicate that individuals with ASD frequently exhibit food selectivity and sensory sensitivities that limit dietary variety. In ADHD, impulsive eating behaviors and irregular dietary patterns are associated with an increased risk of obesity. Individuals with intellectual disabilities often experience poor diet quality, swallowing difficulties, and micronutrient deficiencies, frequently influenced by environmental and caregiver-related factors. In Down syndrome, both feeding difficulties and an elevated risk of obesity are observed, influenced by genetic and metabolic characteristics. Nutritional problems in neurodevelopmental disorders are multifactorial, involving biological, behavioral, sensory, cognitive, and environmental influences. These findings highlight the importance of early identification and the implementation of individualized, multidisciplinary intervention strategies, including active family involvement. Further research using more standardized and methodologically rigorous approaches is needed to strengthen the evidence base.
