Body mass index, body fat and risk factor of relapse in anorexia nervosa.
Article in European journal of clinical nutrition, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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/
objectivesPreliminary studies have reported an association between poor long-term outcome and lower total body fat percentage in weight-restored inpatients treated for anorexia nervosa (AN). A possible link between poor long-term outcome and higher trunk fat percentage has also been hypothesized. The aim was to assess the association between percentage and distribution of body fat at inpatient discharge and the maintenance of normal weight at 1-year follow-up in a sample of weight-restored females with AN. SUBJECTS/
methodsFifty-four short-term weight-restored (body mass index (BMI; in kg/m(2)) ⩾18.5) adult females with AN treated in a specialist inpatient unit underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry to determine total body fat and trunk fat percentages. Patients were contacted regularly following discharge, and at the end of the year clinical outcome was dichotomized as either 'full, good or fair' (a group that includes individuals with a BMI ⩾18.5 kg/m(2)) or 'poor' (BMI<18.5 kg/m(2)), using the modified Morgan-Russell criteria.
resultsNo significant differences were found between 'full, good or fair' and 'poor' outcome groups in either total body fat or trunk fat percentages. Only lower BMI at inpatient discharge was associated with poor clinical outcome in the year following inpatient treatment.
conclusionsIn short-term weight-restored adult females with AN, BMI, but not body fat percentage or distribution, at inpatient discharge is associated with long-term normal weight maintenance.
