1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeTo determine the incidence and prevalence of eating disorder and its clinical forms.

methodsAll new ED cases of both genders, ≥15 years old, diagnosed from January 2005 to December 2009 were included. All patients who suffered from ED in December 2009 were included in the prevalence study. This is a prospective, population-based study. Cumulative incidence rates and 20-year prevalence were calculated.

resultsThe ED incidence was 14.1 (95% CI 11.4-16.1) cases per 100,000 inhabitants per year, for AN, BN and EDNOS 3.1 (95% CI 2.00-4.1), 4.4 (95% CI 3.0-8.00) and 6.5 (95% CI 4.8-7.9), respectively. The incidence of ED at the four age-intervals, 15-24, 25-34, 35-45 and >45 years, revealed that the 25-34-year interval had the highest incidence; moreover, new cases were observed even in the >45-year interval. The prevalence of ED was 82.8 (95% CI 69.4-94.5) per 100,000 inhabitants, being for AN, BN and EDNOS 18.6 (95% CI 12.5-24.4), 25.7 (95% CI 18.5-32.5) and 38.3 (95% CI 29.4-46.5), respectively.

conclusionsThe incidence and prevalence of EDNOS are the highest in the ED cases; furthermore, new cases of ED are observed above the age of 45, which are remarkable data.
