A comparison of food-based decision-making between restricting and binge-eating/purging subtypes of anorexia nervosa.
Article 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 10 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
objectiveBy definition, restricting (ANR) and binge-eating/purging (ANBP) subtypes of anorexia nervosa (AN) differ in some manifestations of maladaptive eating behavior. This study aimed to determine whether the groups differ in the choices they make about what to eat, and whether there are differences in valuation related to food choice, using an experimental paradigm.
methodInpatients with ANR (n = 40) and ANBP (n = 46) participated in a Food Choice Task. During the task, participants rated 76 food images for healthiness and tastiness, and choice preferences. Groups were compared in percent selection of high-fat and low-fat foods, value ratings of foods, and engagement of self-control in food choice.
resultsThere were no differences between AN subtypes in healthiness or tastiness ratings, or in tendency to limit choice of high-fat foods. There was no difference between the groups in measures of self-control in food choice. DISCUSSION: Individuals with ANR and ANBP similarly manifest reduced choices of high-fat foods, with similar tendencies to undervalue the tastiness of high-fat foods. These results suggest that while individuals with ANR and ANBP differ across a range of clinical characteristics, the decision-making process associated with the maladaptive restriction of high-fat foods characteristic of AN is shared by both subtypes.
