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

This project aimed to evaluate the acceptance of a short, animated video addressing excessive exercise within the context of eating disorder (ED) behaviours among diverse target groups, assess its impact and explore potential associations with disordered eating risk. An online survey was conducted, recruiting 170 participants who were shown a 3-minute and 11-second long animated video portraying narratives of individuals with lived experiences related to excessive exercise and ED. Participants provided demographic information, engaged in the video evaluation answering a 9-item questionnaire and completed a subsequent ED screening and a drive for muscularity questionnaire. In an optional open-ended comment section, participants provided suggestions, feelings, ideas and criticism. Individuals identified as at risk for disordered eating reported a significantly higher personal impact of the video, including the motivation to self-reflect on their personal exercise habits. Qualitative analyses revealed themes related to suggestions for the video's use, general reflections on sports behaviours and ED, and reactions to the video's artistic design. This interdisciplinary project underscores the potential of artistic animated short videos co-designed with individuals with lived experience in conveying narratives and fostering introspection among individuals at risk for ED and excessive exercise behaviours. Further exploration and refinement of interdisciplinary artistic approaches are recommended to enhance effectiveness and inclusivity in addressing ED and associated behaviours.
