Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.

What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07822230). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: Federal University of Health Science of Porto Alegre. Recruitment status: RECRUITING. Phase: NA. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 74 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Menopause, Menopause Hot Flashes, Overweight , Obesity, Perimenopause, Climacteric Syndrome, Postmenopause, Menopause-related Hot Flashes, Menopause Related Conditions, Menopause Symptoms, Climactericum. Interventions: OTHER: Nutritional guidelines on healthy eating based on the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population in printed material and 5 in-person and virtual meetings; OTHER: Nutritional guidelines on healthy eating based on the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population only in printed material. Primary outcome measures: Menopausal Symptoms , From the enrollment period to the end of the study: 5 months.. Brief summary: The menopausal transition is associated with significant hormonal changes that negatively impact many women's quality of life. Vasomotor symptoms, sleep disturbances, mood changes, and genitourinary symptoms are frequently reported during this period. Concurrently, there is a tendency toward increased body weight and fat redistribution, specifically central fat accumulation, which raises the risk of metabolic diseases. Although hormonal therapy is effective, it is not suitable for all women, necessitating the consideration of non-pharmacological strategies as therapeutic alternatives. Scientific evidence indicates that healthy dietary patterns and weight loss are associated with reduced menopausal symptom severity. The objective of the research is to evaluate the effects of a dietary intervention based on the guidelines of the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population (GAPB) on the reduction of menopausal symptoms. A randomized clinical trial will be conducted to assess whether improving dietary quality and reducing body weight contribute to alleviating menopausal symptoms. Participants will be assigned to two groups: a control group (CG) and an intervention group (IG). Both groups will receive nutritional guidance based on the GAPB; however, the CG will receive the guidelines in printed format, whereas the IG will receive them through group sessions. The study will include perimenopausal or postmenopausal women who are overweight or obese and experiencing menopausal symptoms. Validated instruments will be administered at the beginning and end of the study to assess dietary patterns, menopausal symptoms, and nutritional status.
