Associations of MIND and DI-GM dietary scores with depression, anxiety, and gut microbiota in patients with colon cancer: a cross-sectional study.

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: Dietary patterns influence psychological health, systemic inflammation, and gut microbiota composition in colon cancer patients. This study evaluates the associations of the Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) score and the Dietary Index for Gut Microbiota (DI-GM) with psychological outcomes, inflammatory markers, gut microbiota diversity (Shannon index) and composition (Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio), and tumor biomarkers in colon cancer patients. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 630 colon Cancer patients. Multivariate linear regression models adjusted for demographic, clinical, and dietary factors assessed associations of MIND and DI-GM scores with depression, anxiety (HADS), sleep quality (PSQI), quality of life (FACT-C), inflammatory markers (CRP, IL-6, fecal calprotectin), F/B ratio, and tumor biomarkers (CEA, CA19-9). Results: Higher MIND and DI-GM scores were significantly associated with better psychological outcomes and reduced systemic inflammation. Each one-unit increase in the MIND score was associated with lower depression ( Conclusion: Adherence to MIND and DI-GM dietary patterns is associated with better psychological outcomes, lower inflammation, and favorable gut microbiota in colon cancer patients. DI-GM may better capture diet-gut microbiota-inflammation links, highlighting diet as a target to improve patient well-being.
