Exploring the Relationship Between Eating Disorders and Reproductive Health, with a Focus on Fertility, Obstetric, and Fetal Outcomes: A Narrative Review.
Review in Current nutrition reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purpose of reviewEating disorders can profoundly impact reproductive health in females, spanning from the onset of puberty through menopause. The impact is due to a variety of factors, including nutritional status, body fat percentage, and hormone regulation. Notably, fertility and pregnancy are particularly vulnerable to undernutrition and disordered eating. This narrative review provides a comprehensive summary and discussion of available literature from the past 5 years exploring the impact of eating disorders on fertility, obstetric outcomes, and fetal outcomes. RECENT
findingsCurrent literature demonstrates that EDs can have a negative impact on fertility, obstetric outcomes, and fetal outcomes. Primary research and systematic reviews support associations including increased use of assisted reproductive treatment for infertility, anemia and hyperemesis during pregnancy, and preterm delivery. Associated fetal outcomes include infant low birth weight, small for gestational age, and microcephaly. EDs, when unrecognized and left untreated, can negatively impact fertility, obstetric outcomes, and fetal outcomes. It is important for providers to be aware of these associations and implement screening to identify at-risk patients, as appropriate treatment can improve reproductive outcomes.
