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

objectiveAssessment of the longer-term outcome of anorexia nervosa (AN) in female adolescent inpatients (N = 132).

methodA follow-up (mean 8.2 years) after treatment was conducted. A subsample of 39 patients with at least 10 years of follow-up (mean 14 years) was defined.

resultsOver the 8-year follow-up period, the body mass index (BMI) increased from 14.33 (1.65) to 19.04 kg/m DISCUSSION: In the long run, eating disorder diagnoses decreased significantly. Although a considerable proportion of patients recovered from their eating disorder, the number of recovered patients remained limited, with long-term negative consequences in a large proportion of patients. Standardized mortality was excessive, calling for ever-better therapies. Additional studies are needed to show if improved therapies lead to a better long-term outcome.
