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

objectiveThe longer term efficacy of medication treatments for binge-eating disorder (BED) remains unknown. This study examined the longer term effects of fluoxetine and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) either with fluoxetine (CBT + fluoxetine) or with placebo (CBT + placebo) for BED through 12-month follow-up after completing treatments.

method81 overweight patients with BED within a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled acute treatment trial allocated to fluoxetine-only, CBT + fluoxetine, and CBT + placebo were assessed before treatment, during treatment, posttreatment, and 6 and 12 months after completing treatments. Outcome variables comprised remission from binge eating (0 binge-eating episodes for 28 days) and continuous measures of binge-eating frequency, eating disorder psychopathology, depression, and weight.

resultsIntent-to-treat remission rates (missing data coded as nonremission) differed significantly across treatments at posttreatment and at 6- and 12-month follow-ups. At 12-month follow-up remission rates were 3.7% for fluoxetine-only, 26.9% for CBT + fluoxetine, and 35.7% for CBT + placebo. Mixed-effects models of all available continuous data (without imputation) at posttreatment and at 6- and 12-month follow-ups (controlling for baseline scores) revealed the treatments differed on all clinical outcome variables, except for weight, across time. CBT + fluoxetine and CBT + placebo did not differ and both were significantly superior to fluoxetine-only on the majority of clinical outcomes.

conclusionsThis represents the first report from any randomized placebo-controlled trial for BED that has reported follow-up data after completing a course of medication-only treatment. CBT + placebo was superior to fluoxetine-only, and adding fluoxetine to CBT did not enhance findings compared to adding placebo to CBT. The findings document the longer term effectiveness of CBT, but not fluoxetine, through 12 months after treatment completion.
