1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveThis study assessed whether baseline levels of distal and proximal minority stressors related to sexual orientation, gender, and weight were associated with prospective risk for dysregulated eating in daily life among sexual minority women with overweight/obesity.

methodsFifty-five sexual minority women ages 18-60 (

resultsSeveral minority stressors related to sexual orientation, gender, and weight were associated with prospective risk for dysregulated eating behaviors during EMA. Women with higher (vs. lower) baseline levels of internalized homophobia reported more cumulative episodes of binge eating during the EMA period. Women reporting greater (vs. less) baseline sexual orientation concealment reported more episodes of overeating during the EMA period. Women with greater (vs. less) baseline weight bias experiences and internalization reported more overeating and binge eating episodes during the EMA period.

conclusionsFindings from this pilot study identify internalized homophobia, sexual orientation concealment, and experienced and internalized weight bias as potential risk factors for dysregulated eating behaviors among sexual minority women of higher body weight.
