Binge Eating, Loss of Control over Eating, Emotional Eating, and Night Eating After Bariatric Surgery: Results from the Toronto Bari-PSYCH Cohort Study.

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
objectivesWe explored the severity of binge eating, loss of control over eating, emotional eating, and night eating before bariatric surgery and annually for 3 years following surgery. We also assessed the impact of post-operative eating psychopathology on weight outcomes.
methodsEight hundred forty-four patients participated in this prospective cohort study. Demographic factors, self-report measures of eating pathology (BES, NEQ, EES, EDE-Q), and weights (kg) were collected pre-surgery and annually for 3 years after surgery.
resultsThe severity of problematic eating behaviors decreased after surgery and remained lower than baseline throughout follow-up. An increase was noted in binge eating scores (change in mean score ± SD = 0.85 ± 4.71; p = 0.002), emotional eating scores (2.00 ± 13.63; p = 0.033), and loss of control eating scores (1.11 ± 7.01; p < 0.001) after the first post-operative year that continued to the third post-operative year. There was also an increase in night eating scores between 2 and 3 years post-surgery (2.52 ± 8.00; p = 0.01). Higher 1-year post-operative binge eating scores were a significant predictor of lower 2-year % total weight loss (β = - 0.39, confidence interval (CI) - 1.23, - 0.16, p = 0.012).
conclusionsThe severity of problematic eating behaviors decrease after bariatric surgery, but increase significantly between the first and third post-operative years. Binge Eating Scale score at 1 year post-surgery was the only significant predictor of reduced percent total weight loss at 2 years. Additional prospective studies with adequate power are required to assess the progression of these eating pathologies beyond 3 years and their impact on weight outcomes beyond 2 years.
