Healthy dietary pattern and accelerated biological aging in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women: among different BMI statuses.
Article in European journal of nutrition, 2025. 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
purposeThis study aims to investigate the relationship between a healthy dietary pattern and biological aging among perimenopausal and postmenopausal women in the United States, as well as this relationship among different body mass index (BMI) categories.
methodsAmong 4375 perimenopausal and postmenopausal women in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2010, we calculated the Healthy Eating Index-2020(HEI-2020) to assess the healthy dietary pattern. Phenotypic age (PhenoAge) was calculated with 9 blood biomarkers, including albumin, creatinine, glucose, C-reactive protein, lymphocyte percentage, mean cell volume, red blood cell distribution width, alkaline phosphatase, and white blood cell distribution, to measure biological age. Weighted logistic regression models, adjusted for covariates, were employed to examine cross-sectional associations between the dietary pattern and biological aging measurements.
resultsThe total HEI-2020 score was not associated with accelerated aging, either in the overall population or across different BMI subgroups. However, regarding different food components, protein of seafood and plants (OR:0.76, 95%CI 0.62-0.94, P = 0.01) in the normal BMI group, vegetables (OR:0.72, 95%CI 0.58-0.89, P = 0.004) and whole grain (OR:0.90, 95%CI 0.82-0.99, P = 0.024) in the overweight BMI group, and vegetables (OR: 0.86, 95%CI 0.75-1.00, P = 0.051) in the obese group might be protective factors against accelerated aging.
conclusionsThe total HEI-2020 score was not associated with biological aging in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. For HEI-2020 score of food components, protein of seafood and plants, whole grains and vegetables, and vegetables were associated with delayed aging for these women whose BMI was normal, overweight, and obese respectively. Increasing the intake of these foods may help them delay their biological age.
