Pain and emotional eating: further investigation of the Yale Emotional Overeating Questionnaire in weight loss seeking patients.
Article in Journal of behavioral medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03234881 (Weight Loss Treatment and CBT for Veterans With Binge Eating), which is not on this map. Cited by 6 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

Abstract
Providers frequently report pain as a barrier to weight loss yet the relationship between the pain experience and eating behavior is poorly understood. The current study examines overeating in response to physical pain (Pain Overeating). Weight-loss seeking Veterans (N = 126) completed the Yale Emotional Overeating Questionnaire, a measure used to assess the frequency of overeating in response to a range of emotions that was adapted to include a Pain Overeating item, and validated measures of pain, eating pathology, and mental health. Fifty-one participants (42.5%) engaged in at least one Pain Overeating episode in the past month, and 14.2% engaged in this behavior daily. Pain Overeating was significantly related to pain intensity and interference, and accounted for statistically significant variance in predicting BMI, eating pathology and depression. Findings suggest eating in response to physical pain is common among weight-loss seeking Veterans and may have important implications for weight management treatment.
