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
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory debilitating disorder that can result in significant morbidity. In addition to medical and surgical treatments, lifestyle modifications such as smoking cessation and weight control have an important benefit in HS management. These modifications can be challenging for both the patient and the clinician. The differences in eating behavior of HS patients compared to the general population are mostly unknown. Defining these differences in HS patients may help to develop more effective weight loss strategies. In our study, we aim to describe differences in eating behavior in HS patients compared to the normal population. 140 patients with HS and 140 age, gender and body mass index-matched healthy controls were included in the study. For each HS patient, Hurley and the investigator's global assessment scores were defined by a dermatologist. For each participant, Hamilton depression scale (HAM-D), Hamilton anxiety scale (HAM-A), and Dutch eating behavior questionnaire (DEBQ) were assessed by a psychiatrist. HAM-D scores were found to be significantly higher in HS group (p < 0.001), whereas HAM-A scores did not show a significant difference between HS and control group (p = 0.744). Emotional eating scores were significantly higher in HS patients compared to the control group (patients: 3.14 ± 0.96, controls: 2.29 ± 0.96, p < 0.001). Similarly, external eating scores were markedly elevated in HS patients compared to controls (patients: 3.38 ± 0.66, controls: 2.82 ± 0.73, p < 0.001). However, in terms of restrictive eating, there was no significant difference between the two groups (p = 0.783). In regression analysis, depression and anxiety scores were found not to have a significant effect on restrictive, emotional and external eating scores. Furthermore, in HS patients, a moderate positive correlation was found between emotional eating and external eating (p < 0.001). In conclusion, HS patients have tendency for emotional and external eating behavior independent from depression and anxiety.
