Weight suppression and weight maintenance following treatment of anorexia nervosa.
Trial report in The International journal of eating disorders, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveThe value of weight suppression (WS) in predicting the course of anorexia nervosa (AN) is uncertain. The objective of this study was to determine, using data from a previously published study, whether patients who remain weight suppressed following restoration to a minimally normal weight are at greater risk for relapse.
methodFollowing weight restoration, 93 women with AN were randomly assigned to receive fluoxetine or placebo along with cognitive behavioral therapy for 1 year. WS (highest adult weight minus current weight), body mass index (BMI), and their interaction were assessed as predictors of change in weight over the first 28 days, of successful weight maintenance at 6 and 12 months, and of time to relapse.
resultsNeither WS nor its interaction with BMI predicted successful weight maintenance at 6 and 12 months, time to relapse, or weight change over the first 28 days following discharge. DISCUSSION: This study found that WS does not substantially impact the likelihood of successful weight maintenance or time to relapse following restoration to a minimally normal weight in AN.
