Food Addiction: Prevalence, Severity, and Impact on Vascular Stroke Risk Factors in a French Hospital-Based Sample.

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
backgroundStroke ranks as the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of disability in adults worldwide. While an unhealthy diet is an independent risk factor for stroke, its association with disordered eating behaviours on stroke remains overlooked. This exploratory study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and severity of addictive-like eating behaviours in stroke patients and their association with the main vascular stroke risk factors.
methodsFirst-ever minor or moderate stroke patients with the ability to complete self-report questionnaires were included. Addictive-like eating was assessed using the Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0 (YFAS 2.0). The variables of interest were: (i) the proportion of patients meeting the diagnosis of food addiction (FA); (ii) FA symptoms count and severity; (iii) addictive-like eating profile severity. Their association with four main vascular risk factors (obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes) were tested using univariate and multivariate analyses.
resultsOver a 4-month period, 101 patients (mean (standard deviation (SD)), 62.8 (13.7) years; males: 60.4%) were consecutively screened with the YFAS 2.0. Overall, 5% of the sample endorsed an FA diagnosis, and 38.6% screened positive for at least one of the symptom criteria, with the most frequently endorsed symptom being "Inability to cut down". Dyslipidemia was the only vascular risk factor associated with the FA diagnosis (
conclusionsThis study highlighted the potential importance of addictive-like behaviours in the secondary prevention of stroke. However, larger and longer-term studies investigating addictive-like eating in diverse samples of stroke patients are warranted to achieve precision medicine.
