Exposure to Online Harassment and Disordered Eating in Transgender and Gender-Diverse Young Adults.

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
objectiveTo estimate the association between online harassment and same-day disordered eating among a sample of US-based transgender and/or gender diverse young adults.
methodParticipants (n = 150) were US residents aged 18-25 years, English-speaking, and identified as transgender, nonbinary, and/or another gender different than that assigned at birth. We collected data between September 2022 and August 2023 using a 10-day daily diary design. Multilevel models were employed to estimate the association between any/no online harassment in the past-24 h and odds of same-day disordered eating behavior (overeating, binge eating, weight-controlling behavior, coping-related eating, and body dissatisfaction).
resultsThe sample included 1192 diaries (mean per participant = 7.95, range = 1, 9). Online harassment was associated with greater odds of same-day overeating (adjusted odds ratio, aOR = 3.38, 95% confidence interval, CI = 1.02, 9.17), binge eating (aOR = 15.09, 95% CI = 2.73, 83.43), and coping-related eating behavior (aOR = 4.07, 95% CI = 1.51, 10.93). DISCUSSION: Experiencing online harassment was associated with higher odds of same-day disordered eating behavior in a sample of transgender and/or gender diverse young adults. Clinical and public health interventions must focus on improving safety in online environments and mitigating potential harms arising from negative digital interactions.
