The association between type 2 diabetes and dietary antioxidant index: a cross-sectional study in the Iranian population.
Article in Archives of endocrinology and metabolism, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveThis study aims to explore the association between dietary antioxidant index (DAI) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) in the Iranian population. SUBJECTS AND
methodsThe present cross- sectional study comprised 4,241 participants aged from 35 to 70. A food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) was used to assess dietary intake. The DAI score was determined using Wright's method, which quantifies the antioxidant content of the diet. Logistic and linear regression analyses were used to determine the link between DAI and T2D after adjusting for confounding variables.
resultsNegative associations were found between T2D with total score of DAI (OR = 0.67, CI95%: 0.55-0.81, P = 0.001) and DAI score of zinc (OR = 0.53, CI95%: 0.40-0.72, P = 0.001), manganese (OR = 0.77, CI95%: 0.68-0.88, P = 0.001), and selenium (OR = 0.88, CI95%: 0.78-0.98, P = 0.010) after adjustments for age, sex, BMI, education level, marital status, occupation, physical activity, and calorie intake.
conclusionThese results indicate the significance of an antioxidant-rich diet in preventing T2D and its complications. Nevertheless, additional investigation is required to validate these findings and explore the fundamental mechanisms of the association of T2D and dietary antioxidants.
