Eating behaviour and nutritional status of children with mental illness.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2026. 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
Background: Dietary preference and childhood eating behaviour influence the mental health of children. Nutrition plays an important role in physical and mental health by supporting the development, normal functioning, and overall well-being of the body. Aim: To study the nutritional status of children with mental illness admitted at a tertiary care psychiatric centre, Bangalore. Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted among 100 children admitted to the tertiary care psychiatric centre, Bangalore. Nutritional status and eating behaviour were assessed by anthropometric measurements and the Child Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (CEBQ). The children's mental health was assessed by using the CGAS scale (Children's Global Assessment Scale). Result: The study revealed that the average age of the children was 10.17 years. The majority of children are 49% normal weight. A significant correlation was found between nutritional status and some of the domains of eating behaviour like food responsiveness, enjoyment eating, and satiety responsiveness and child mental health at Conclusion: Study findings reveal a significant correlation between nutritional status and eating behaviour, indicating that the nutritional status of children with mental illness is closely linked to their eating behaviour. Parents of children with mental illness are facing various eating behavioural challenges to meet the nutritional requirements of the children.
