An Atypical Adult Presentation of Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder.

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
Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is a rare eating disorder usually seen in children and adolescents; adult presentations are uncommon. We report a 46-year-old male patient with generalized rash, weight loss, and weakness. He underwent extensive investigations, including MRI, CSF, CT, PET-CT, bone marrow biopsy, and autoimmune/paraneoplastic screening, due to diagnostic uncertainty and the non-specific presentation. A multidisciplinary team identified ARFID related to disordered eating behaviors (rushed eating, fear of fullness). The diagnosis was based on the history taken from the patient about his eating habits and the absence of any other conditions that could explain the symptoms. He was managed with nasogastric feeding, nutritional supplementation, dietetic input, and psychiatric support, which led to symptom improvement and steady weight gain. This case illustrates an atypical adult presentation of ARFID with systemic manifestations, emphasizing the need for multidisciplinary recognition and treatment.
