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

objectiveProgram-led and focused models may overcome structural barriers to accessing ED care, such as limited availability, for youth with EDs by prioritizing strategic, evidence-based care delivered through a structured approach. The Rapid Intervention to Support Eating Issues (RISE) pilot aimed to promote weight restoration and prevent hospitalization among malnourished adolescents at risk for hospitalization. We used a "home hospital" approach, integrating medical oversight, family-based treatment principles, and nutritional support via structured outpatient care.

methodsParticipants completed 4-5 visits with adolescent medicine and nutrition over 8 weeks. They received psychoeducation and support in implementing home hospital. Vital signs, anthropometrics, dietary intake, ED behaviors, and cognitions were assessed.

resultsA total of 27 patients participated. Patients experienced low hospitalization rates (n = 1 throughout; 3.7%) and significant weight gain (M DISCUSSION: This program-led and focused intervention produced meaningful outcomes and circumvented hospitalization for youth at high risk in a short time frame. This approach offers promise for scalable, early ED care that leverages programmatic expertise, consistent with evolving models of mental health service delivery.
