Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06084260 (Comparison of Nutritional Counseling Based on Self-compassion vs. Diet Approach on Body Dissatisfaction, Food Restriction, and Disordered Eating in Adult Women), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.

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.

Abstract

MATERIALS AND

methodsThis protocol was developed according to the guidelines of the Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials 2013 Statement (SPIRIT) and presents a randomized clinical trial with women who are dissatisfied with their bodies and live in southern Brazil. Participants will be randomized to the self-compassion or diet group and attend eight-week weekly meetings. Body image dissatisfaction will be assessed using the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ), dysfunctional eating will be assessed using the Three Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ-RS21), and levels of self-compassion will be measured using the Self-Compassion Scale (SCS). The participants will answer the tools at the beginning of the study, at the end of the 8-week intervention, and 3 and 6 months after the end of the meetings. DISCUSSION: This will be the first study to compare these two approaches using body dissatisfaction and eating behavior as outcomes, not just body weight. To date, only observational studies have evaluated the relationship between self-compassion, body dissatisfaction, and dysfunctional eating behavior. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov NCT06084260.
