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

aimIn this study, we focused on the Greek validation of the Emotional Eating Scale for Children and Adolescents (EES-C).

methodsOur sample consisted of 150 students in primary and secondary school settings from two different areas of Greece. Child Depression Inventory (CDI) and State and Trait Anxiety in Children (STAIC) were also used for validation purposes.

resultsThe principal component factor analysis for construct validity generated three subscales: eating in response to anger/anxiety, feeling unsettled and de-pression. The EES-C tool was found with high internal reliability (Cronbach's Alpha 0.917).

conclusionsEES-C is a valid and reliable instrument to detect the emotional eating in children and adolescents in Greece.
