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

Objectives: This scoping review aimed to synthesize findings from intersectionality-informed eating pathology (EP) research and documented how intersectionality has been operationalized in this body of literature. Methods: Systematic literature searches were conducted in October 2022 and updated in May 2025 across six databases. Articles meeting the following criteria were included: 1) written in English, 2) published in peer-reviewed journals, 3) acknowledged and/or employed intersectionality as a study rationale, 4) employed intersectional investigations, and 5) addressed EP as an outcome. Results: A total of 42 articles were included, comprising 27 quantitative, 14 qualitative, and one mixed-methods study. Limited engagement with intersectionality was evident, with 21 quantitative and 11 qualitative findings citing foundational authors and 11 quantitative and 8 qualitative findings providing a definition or explanation of intersectionality. While all qualitative articles addressed the concept of power by considering both social identities and systems of oppression, less than half of the quantitative articles did so ( Conclusion: Most EP research is limited in its engagement with intersectionality. This review highlights the underrepresentation of diverse social identities and associated systems of oppression, as well as prevalent patterns of gender binarism. Based on these gaps, recommendations for future research were provided.
