Short-form video overuse and adolescents' restrained eating: the roles of body shame and physical exercise.
Article in BMC psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe social media’s dissemination of norms for body shape is progressively shaping individual perceptions and behaviors. Social media plays a key role in causing body shame and restrained eating behavioral pattern of adolescents. Although the relationships among short-form video overuse, body shame, and restrained eating are well documented, it is unclear whether the specific problem of short-form video overuse also plays a role in these relationships. We tested body shame as a mediator and physical exercise as a moderator of the association between short-form video overuse and restrained eating among adolescents.
methodsAdolescents (N = 535; ages 13 to 17; 50.1% girls) from four secondary schools in Hunan Province, China were surveyed by cluster sampling method. The students completed the Short-Form Video Overuse Scale, the Body Shame Scale, the Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire, and the Physical Activity Rating Scale during regular class time.
resultsThe results of regression-based analyses indicated that short-form video overuse was positively associated with restrained eating, and body shame mediated this association. The relationship between body shame and restrained eating was stronger among adolescents who engaged in low physical exercise.
conclusionExcessive viewing of Short-form video may increase the risk of body shame and restrained eating. The results highlight the potential utility of physical exercise in interventions to reduce adolescents’ restrained eating.
