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

objectivesThis study aimed to develop a gender-specific model to understand the causal relationship between body image dissatisfaction, emotional eating, and suicide risk among bariatric surgery patients. A secondary objective was to evaluate gender differences in the associations between these variables. It was hypothesized that, independent of objective weight loss, body dissatisfaction and emotional eating would lead to increased suicide risk.

methodsA total of 109 participants completed self-report measures of suicidal ideation, body image dissatisfaction, and emotional eating before and after bariatric surgery.

resultsCross-lagged analysis indicated that pre-surgery suicide ideation significantly predicts body dissatisfaction primarily among men, independent of the extent of weight loss. High levels of pre-surgery suicide risk correlated with post-surgery body image dissatisfaction in men. The autoregressive effect of suicide ideation was stronger than that of body dissatisfaction for both genders; however, the latter was stronger among women, indicating that past dissatisfaction levels significantly influenced future dissatisfaction.

conclusionsThe complex interplay between gender, body dissatisfaction, emotional eating, and suicide risk warrants further research.
