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
Introduction: Eating disorders represent an important health concern among athletes, yet validated Hungarian screening tools remain limited. The present study aimed to translate, culturally adapt, and psychometrically validate the Hungarian version of the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire-Short (EDE-QS-H) in a sample of Hungarian athletes. A secondary aim was to examine the relationship between eating disorder psychopathology and multidimensional self-reported interoceptive awareness. Methods: A total of 205 recreational athletes recruited from two university settings (51.7% women; mean age = 21.8 ± 5.6 years) completed the Hungarian EDE-QS, the Disordered Eating Screen for Athletes-Hungarian version (DESA-6H), and the Hungarian Multidimensional Assessment of Interoceptive Awareness (MAIA). Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed using the robust weighted least squares estimator with mean and variance adjustment (WLSMV). Internal consistency was evaluated using Cronbach's Results: Sequential psychometric refinement resulted in a 10-item unidimensional model with improved model fit ( Conclusion: This initial validation provides evidence that the refined 10-item EDE-QS-H has promising factorial validity, excellent internal consistency, and construct-validity support in this university-based sample of Hungarian recreational athletes. The instrument may be useful as a brief research and preliminary screening measure of eating disorder psychopathology; however, diagnostic validity and broader clinical utility require evaluation in independent and clinical samples.
