Am I Overweight? A Longitudinal Study on Parental and Peers Weight-Related Perceptions on Dietary Behaviors and Weight Status Among Adolescents.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
objectiveAn investigation of the interplay between various types of adolescents' perceptions of weight status in predicting adolescents' nutrition behavior and their body mass was conducted. In particular, it was hypothesized that the relationship between parental and peers' perceptions of their own weight status (reported by adolescents) and objectively measured weight status of adolescents would be mediated by three types of adolescents' weight status perceptions (adolescents' own weight perceptions, parental perceptions of adolescents' weight status perceived by participants, and peers' perceptions of adolescents' weight status perceived by participants) and by adolescents' nutrition behaviors.
designData were collected twice, with a 13-month follow-up. Participants (N = 1096) were aged 14-20, with BMI ranging from 16.20 to 41.21. Multiple mediation analysis with two sequential mediators was applied.
main outcome measuresAt the baseline adolescents completed the questionnaire assessing their nutrition behaviors and weight status perceptions. Weight and height were measured objectively at baseline and follow-up.
resultsTwo types of weight perceptions (adolescents' own weight status perceptions, peers' perceptions of adolescents' weight status reported by participants), and adolescents' nutrition behaviors mediated the relationship between the others' own weight perceptions and adolescents' weight status. No indirect effects of others' own weight perceptions on adolescents' weight status through parental perceptions were found.
conclusionAdolescents' nutrition behaviors and body weight status depend on what they think about their own weight status and what they think of their peers' perceptions, but do not depend on what adolescents think of their parents' perceptions.
