[Detection of adolescents at risk of suffering eating disorders].
Article in Atencion primaria, 2007. 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
objectivesTo analyse which risk factors are related to eating disorders and to identify useful questions for their early detection in primary care.
designObservational, cross-sectional study.
settingSix secondary schools in Leganés, Madrid, Spain.
participantsAdolescents aged between 12 and 18 years old attending secondary school. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: Risk of suffering an eating disorder (Eating Attitudes Test-26) and questions about weight, height, family, attitudes towards body image, use of health services for eating disorders, and mental illness history.
resultsAn 8.8% of the adolescents were at risk of developing an eating disorder (4.6% male; 11.8% female). Age in males (OR=0.76) and 24-hour fasting to lose weight (OR for males =7.44; OR for females =3.09) were associated with the risk of eating disorders. Early menarche (OR=1.69), having dieted for social or environmental reasons, and self-induced vomiting (OR=5.71) were associated with eating disorders in women. The specificity and negative predictive value of asking about self-induced vomiting and 24-hour fasting in order to detect an eating disorder were around 95%.
conclusionsAge is a protective factor for eating disorders, especially in males. In women, early menarche is a risk factor. Asking about self-induced vomiting and 24-hour fasting enables eating disorders in women to be ruled out.
