Understanding body image in adolescents with drunkorexia behaviors: The roles of body image disturbance, coping strategies and gender.
Article in International journal of clinical and health psychology : IJCHP. 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
Drunkorexia consists of any calorie compensation or eating restrictive conduct enacted before, during, or immediately after alcohol intake. These behaviors raise many health concerns, but studies on adolescents are still limited. Specifically, understanding how body image impacts adolescent drunkorexia might be crucial for prevention and treatment. Following the multidimensional body image framework, this study investigated the role of various body image features (i.e., body image disturbance, adaptive and maladaptive body image coping) in explaining two types of drunkorexia behaviors in teenage girls and boys: (1) eating-related restrictive and compensative conducts; and (2) overexercising. The participants were 832 alcohol-drinking adolescents aged 15 to 20 years (48.6 % girls), who completed an online anonymous survey administered at school. A multigroup mediation model was estimated in line with the aims of the study. Body image disturbance symptoms were positively related to eating drunkorexia behaviors via the mediating effects of increasing maladaptive coping (avoidance and appearance fixing). However, the same relation was negative when the mediating effect of increasing adaptive coping (positive rational acceptance) was considered. Moreover, body image disturbance was positively associated with exercise-related drunkorexia behaviors via increasing appearance fixing coping. Finally, the indirect effect of body image disturbance on eating-related drunkorexia via appearance fixing was positive and significant only in girls (not in boys). These findings provide indications for implementing prevention and educational programs for schools, and for identifying core themes to address in clinical treatment and public health policies.
