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
backgroundFor adolescents with Anorexia Nervosa (AN) or Atypical Anorexia Nervosa (AAN), Family Based Treatment (FBT) is an effective treatment. However, outcomes remain suboptimal, making investigations into predictors of outcome important. Most prior research into FBT has focussed on parental and family factors as predictors.
objectiveThe current study aimed to identify predictors of FBT for adolescents with AN and AAN in a real-world setting, specifically focussed on comorbid patient psychopathology as a predictor of outcome.
methodA prospective cohort of 135 young people engaging in manualised FBT (female = 92.6%, age = 14.33 years, SD = 1.54, range 11-17) at a public outpatient child and youth eating disorder (ED) service were evaluated. Measures of ED and comorbid psychopathology and BMI outcomes were evaluated pre- and post-treatment.
resultsResults showed that age was a predictor of drop-out and weight gain, with older age associated with higher chance of drop-out and less weight gain. No comorbid psychopathology measure predicted drop-out or treatment outcomes. DISCUSSION: Findings highlight the potential role of age in treatment non-completion and weight regain in FBT, suggesting the potential need for developmental considerations to FBT among this group.
