Trends and prevalence of eating disorders in children and adolescents.
Article in World journal of psychiatry, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundEating disorders (EDs) have increasingly become a public health problem globally, especially among children and adolescents.
aimTo estimate the burden of EDs in children and adolescents (ages 5-19 years) at the global, regional, and national levels.
methodsRetrieved from Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 for EDs, including anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, we extracted the disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and prevalence rates with 95% uncertainty intervals between 1990-2019. The temporal trends of the DALYs and prevalence rates of EDs were assessed according to the estimated annual percentage changes.
resultsIn our study, we found that the burden of EDs continuously increased globally from 1990 to 2019. Although females accounted for more EDs cases, the burden of EDs in males had a greater increment. Meanwhile, the burden of EDs was associated with the high sociodemographic index (SDI) over the past 30 years and the human development indexes in 2019.
conclusionEDs, predominantly in high-income countries, are rising globally, especially in Asia, highlighting the need for resource planning and medical policy prioritization across all SDI quintiles.
