Gender, residence, and socioeconomic differences in the relationship of nutrition literacy with vegetable and fruit intake in adults.
Article in Frontiers in nutrition, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Intake of vegetable and fruit is vital for long-term health outcomes. Nutrition literacy (NL) is an important influencing factor of dietary habits. This study aims to explore the relationship between NL and vegetable and fruit intake. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in Bengbu, China. Ordinal logistic regression was utilized to explore the correlation between NL and intake of vegetable and fruit, reporting odds ratios ( Results: Approximately 71.0, 40.4, and 40.0% of participants reported consistent consumption of dark-colored vegetables, light-colored vegetables, and fruit, respectively. Individuals with the highest NL were 53% more likely to consume dark-colored vegetables ( Conclusion: This study found a positive relationship between NL and vegetable and fruit intake. However, this relationship exhibited variations based on gender, residence, and socioeconomic status. Public health practitioners should tailor nutrition intervention programs to improve vegetable and fruit consumption among adults in the studied region, with a particular focus on females, urban residents, and individuals with high monthly incomes.
