Article in BMC psychiatry, 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
backgroundThis study examined the association of psychological symptoms with adherence to Mediterranean (MED), dietary approach to stop hypertension (DASH), and Mediterranean-DASH intervention for neurodegenerative delay (MIND) diets, and serum 25(OH)D levels in Iranian adults.
methodsIn this cross-sectional study, 527 adults aged 20–65 years were assessed. Dietary intake was collected using a validated 168-item food frequency questionnaire. Serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels were measured, and psychological symptoms were evaluated using standard questionnaires. Multivariable logistic regression was conducted with adjustment for confounders.
resultsIn the fully-adjusted model, subjects in the highest vs. lowest tertile of MED (OR = 0.21; 95%CI: 0.08–0.48), DASH (OR = 0.35; 95%CI: 0.16–0.78), and MIND (OR = 0.20; 95%CI: 0.09–0.45) diets had lower odds of reporting depressive symptoms. Participants in the top vs. bottom tertile of MED (OR = 0.12; 95%CI: 0.02–0.67), DASH (OR = 0.16; 95%CI: 0.03–0.85), and MIND (OR = 0.07; 95%CI: 0.01–0.63) diets also exhibited 88%, 84%, and 93% lower odds of reporting anxiety symptoms. An inverse significant association has been found between the MED diet and odds of distress (OR = 0.39; 95%CI: 0.21–0.72). However, no significant relationship has been found between the DASH and MIND diets with psychological distress. Serum vitamin D, classified as sufficient, insufficient, deficient, or severely deficient, showed no significant association with psychological symptoms in crude or adjusted analyses.
conclusionAdherence to healthy dietary patterns was associated to lower odds of depressive and anxiety symptoms. No significant link was found for vitamin D. Causality cannot be inferred due to the cross-sectional design.
