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
objectiveTo examine the distinctiveness and significance of two body image constructs, dissatisfaction with weight and shape and overvaluation of weight and shape, with respect to eating disorder psychopathology, weight, and depression in White and Latinx/Hispanic men and women.
methodsParticipants were White (n = 1,941) and Latinx/Hispanic (n = 568) adults living in the United States who completed an online battery of established measures of body image, eating disorder psychopathology and behaviors, and depression.
resultsTwo body image constructs, dissatisfaction with weight and shape and overvaluation of weight and shape, were related to each other but showed some important distinctions in their associations with eating- and weight-related variables. Significantly greater proportions of White than Latinx/Hispanic individuals reported co-occurring dissatisfaction and overvaluation, and significantly greater proportions of Latinx/Hispanic than White individuals reported dissatisfaction alone. Ethnicity moderated the association of dissatisfaction and overvaluation with body mass index (BMI), and the association of overvaluation with depression. Ethnicity also had a main effect on binge-eating frequency.
conclusionsDissatisfaction and overvaluation were distinct among both Latinx/Hispanic and White individuals. However, associations with eating- and weight-related variables varied between ethnicities, suggesting a need for further research on the influence of cultural variables on body image and eating disorder psychopathology.
