Restrictive Eating Patterns and Eating Disorder Risk in Female Ballet Dancers: Exploratory Associations with Self-Reported Workplace Bullying and Possible Mobbing.
Article in Nutrients, 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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesWhile elevated risks of disordered eating attitudes (DEAs) among ballet dancers are well-documented, the underlying organizational and psychosocial factors in their work environment have received less attention. The aim of the present study was to assess the proportion and distinct behavioral patterns of eating disorder (ED) risk among female ballet dancers compared with university students from high-risk disciplines, and to identify workplace stressors associated with clinically relevant ED symptoms.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among professional ballet dancers (
resultsWhen applying the screening threshold (EAT-26 ≥ 20), 35.9% of ballet dancers had clinically relevant ED symptoms, notably surpassing student groups (approximately 25%) (
conclusionsThe ballet-specific restrictive eating pattern (Factor O) tracks as a potential behavioral coping response to navigate rigid theatrical work environments. Multi-level interventions that address workplace mental health are needed to support healthy eating patterns and metabolic balance among ballet dancers.
