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

Weight-related self-monitoring (WRSM) apps (e.g., MyFitnessPal) are used by millions of emerging adults. However, little is known about how WRSM app use impacts users outside of clinical contexts. This study examined how a non-clinical sample of emerging adults believed that using WRSM apps impacted them, both behaviorally and cognitively. Qualitative data come from semi-structured interviews from the Tracking-EAT study. Participants (n = 25) were emerging adults (M
