Analysis of Food Perception in Slim, Overweight, or Obese Individuals.
Article in Nutrients, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
introductionObesity is a systemic disease leading to many complications. One of the causes of obesity is excessive energy intake in relation to its expenditure. Assessing portion sizes and estimating caloric intake is crucial in maintaining a healthy body weight and combating obesity.
objectivesTo evaluate the impact of BMI on the perception of portion sizes and their estimated caloric content. PATIENTS AND
methodsThe anonymous survey was filled out by 205 patients. The survey contained questions regarding different meals. Pictures of main meals were presented and individually assessed by the study participants. Next, they were divided into groups, individuals with normal weight (BMI < 25 kg/m
resultsThe study did not demonstrate significant differences in the subgroups' estimated portion sizes of most main meals. No statistical significance was found in the estimated caloric content of the indicated main meal portions across the studied groups. Obese, overweight, and normal-weighted patients assess food portion size similarly.
conclusionsBMI has no significant impact on caloric estimation. The majority of the population estimate the caloric value of the meals inappropriately. Nevertheless, patients with excessive body weight (overweight and obesity) have a tendency (but not statistically significant) to underestimate the caloric value of full meals compared with people with normal BMI. Incorrect calorie estimation may lead to consuming bigger meal portions in patients with overweight and obesity.
