How Does Obesity, Self-efficacy for Eating Control and Body Image in Women Affect Each Other?
Article in Maedica, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesThis study evaluates the interaction of obesity, self-efficacy for eating control and body image on each other in women. MATERIAL AND
methodsThis is a descriptive analytic study performed on 300 healthy married women. Our sample included three groups of individuals including those with normal, high and very high BMI levels, with 100 consecutive cases in each group; the participants were asked to complete three questionnaires: Demographic Information Questionnaire, Weight Efficacy Lifestyle Questionnaire (WEL), and Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ). OUTCOMES: A higher BMI level was correlated with older age (r=0.304, p0.001). The WEL score was significantly and inversely correlated with the BMI level (r=-0.817, p0.001) Participants of normal, overweight and obese BMI groups had a mean WEL score of 168.78±9.17, 136.69±22.23 and 68.57±17.55, respectively. All MBSRQ subscale scores were significantly correlated with the BMI level.
conclusionsA higher BMI level is associated with older age, lower weight self-efficacy and higher body image dissatisfaction among women.
