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

backgroundAttempts to optimize nutritional intake and eating behaviors in young athletes can increase the risk of developing disordered eating (DE) during an athlete's career. A multitude of factors influencing DE have been identified in the existing literature, encompassing general and sport-specific factors, and have been integrated into a conceptual model based on Petrie and Greenleaf's work and additional research evidence in adults, but has not been proven in young athletes.

methodA total of 691 adolescent athletes (m/f: 276/415) aged 14-20 years, completed a set of online questionnaires assessing DE and different influential factors. Two separate structural equation models (SEMs) were tested: one for female athletes and one for male athletes.

resultsThe initial models showed poor fit; however, respecified models revealed key associations for each gender. Sociocultural pressures and their internalization primarily influenced body dissatisfaction in both genders, which contributed to DE. Additionally, emotion regulation difficulties and low self-esteem were linked to DE in female athletes, whereas sport weight pressures and negative mood were associated with DE in male athletes.

conclusionSociocultural pressures and body dissatisfaction critically affect DE in both female and male athletes, but etiological models for DE differ slightly between genders. If confirmed, prevention programs should be tailored accordingly.
