1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Objective: To measure diet quality in the population aged over 65 years in Spain and its autonomous communities and to identify sociodemographic, health and lifestyle factors related to diet quality based on 2017 Spanish National Health Survey. Methods: To estimate diet quality, we used the Healthy Eating Index for Spanish Population (IASE). A multiple linear regression analysis (regression coefficients and 95 % CIs) was used to determine the relationship between socio-demographic, health and lifestyle factors and IASE. This index was our dependent variable and as independent variables: sex, chronic diseases, age, level of education, engagement in physical activity, marital status and Body Mass Index. Results: A total of 6325 participants were included in the sample. The diet quality rating in Spain revealed that 0.46 % of our population had an unhealthy diet, 87 % needed to make changes, and 12.3 % were following a healthy diet. Being female (Regression coefficient = 1.6, 95 % CI = 1.14;-1.97), being physically active several times a month (Regression coefficient = 1.6, 95 % CI =0.63-2.48) and several times a week (Regression coefficient = 2.2, 95 % CI =1.36-3.10), having chronic disease (Regression coefficients =0.7, 95 % CI =0.08-1.29), being overweight (Regression coefficient = 0.5, 95 % CI =0.06-0.95) and being aged between 70 and 74 (Regression coefficient = 0.5, 95 % CI =0.01-1.07) and 75-79 (Regression coefficient = 0.9, 95 % CI =0.33-1.50) were associated with higher IASE scores. Conclusion and implications: These results help to identify risk groups or situations and to design health prevention programs.
