Subjective binge eating: a marker of disordered eating and broader psychological distress.
Article in Eating and weight disorders : EWD, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
purposeThere is building, but limited evidence to suggest that subjective binge eating (SBE) is clinically concerning. The current study examined associated features of SBEs including disordered eating, body shame, negative affect, and interpersonal problems, as well as how SBE occurrence relates to other daily eating experiences.
methodsParticipants were 400 individuals recruited via internet snowball or Amazon Mechanical Turk, including 132 with at least one SBE [with or without objective binge eating episodes (OBEs)] in the prior 3 months, 135 with at least one OBE (and no SBEs) in the prior 3 months, and 133 with no loss of control eating in the prior 3 months nor a likely lifetime history of anorexia nervosa. Participants responded to questionnaires assessing eating disorder behaviors (i.e., frequency of compensatory behaviors, dietary restriction), body shame, negative affect (depressive/anxiety symptoms), interpersonal difficulties, and perception of daily eating experiences.
resultsIndividuals with SBEs had higher numbers of vomiting, laxative misuse and hard exercise episodes, dietary restriction, body shame, depressive and anxiety symptoms, and negative perceptions of daily eating experiences as compared to those with only OBEs and no loss of control eating.
conclusionThese results suggest that SBEs (whether on their own or combined with OBEs) are more related to disordered eating symptoms, body image concerns, depressive/anxiety symptoms, and general eating distress than OBEs on their own, suggesting that clinicians may view SBEs as markers of concern across domains. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, well-designed group-comparison regression analysis.
