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

objectiveFactors predicting eating disorder (ED) may vary among genders. This study investigated the gender specific influence of adolescents' social media use, body perception, depression and anxiety symptoms on eating disorder risk.

methodThe sample consisted of 183 adolescents aged 14 to 18 years (mean: 115.65±0.89). Sociodemographic information and data from the, Children's Depression Inventory (CDI), Social Media Attitude Scale (SMAS), Eating Disorder Examination Scale (EDES), Eating Attitudes Test (EAT), Screen for Child Anxiety Related Emotional Disorders Child Version (SCARED), and Body Cathexis Scale (BCS) were collected.

resultsIn this study, women have higher scores in SCARED (p<0.001), and lower scores in social competence subscale of SMAS (p=0.008) in comparison to men. Adolescents at risk for eating attitudes had higher scores in the CDI, the BCS, and the SMAS-Social Competence subscale, while adolescents at risk for eating disorder had higher scores in all scales except the SMAS-Relationship with Teachers subscale. Although depression and body perception influence women's' eating attitudes directly, social media revealed its effect on ED by the mediation of depressive symptoms. In men, social isolation, anxiety, and depression directly predicts ED, while social media enhanced the risk of ED by aggravating anxiety.

conclusionIt is important to know the factors that influence the risk of ED in terms of gender, and effectively address adolescence's psychological and medical burden.
