From impulsivity to binge eating: the mediating influence of emotional, external, and restrictive eating styles.
Article in Journal of eating disorders, 2026. 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
backgroundThis study aimed to examine the associations between impulsivity, dysfunctional eating styles (emotional, external, and restrictive eating), and binge eating in a nonclinical sample of young adults, as well as to test the mediating role of dysfunctional eating styles in the relationship between impulsivity and binge eating.
methodsA total of 390 young adults (M
resultsNegative urgency was significantly associated with emotional (β = 0.353, p < 0.001), external (β = 0.379, p < 0.001), and restrictive eating (β = 0.266, p < 0.001). Additionally, lack of perseverance was positively associated with external eating (β = 0.105, p = 0.050). All dysfunctional eating styles were positively linked to binge eating: emotional eating (β = 0.306, p < 0.001), external eating (β = 0.183, p < 0.001), and restrictive eating (β = 0.461, p < 0.001). Indirect effects revealed that only negative urgency was connected to binge eating through emotional eating (β = 0.106, p < 0.001), external eating (β = 0.068, p = 0.003), and restrictive eating (β = 0.120, p = 0.001).
conclusionsThe findings highlight the central role of negative urgency in the emergence of dysfunctional eating styles and binge eating, underscoring the importance of addressing negative urgency and dysfunctional eating styles in prevention programs and interventions to reduce the risk of binge eating.
