Disordered eating among military adolescents presenting for annual health visits at a naval clinic.

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
introductionThe purpose of this study was to estimate disordered eating behavior (DEB) prevalence in military dependent adolescents, compare it to previous reports in the general adolescent population, and investigate whether obesity, sex and gender, or key military-specific demographics (parent in the military, parental active duty [AD] status, military branch, number of lifetime moves, number of parental deployments) are associated with higher DEB risk.
methodsRetrospective cross-sectional study of military dependents aged 11-19 years seen in an adolescent clinic at a naval medical center for annual health maintenance visits. We manually abstracted body mass index, gender, sex, military demographics, and ChEAT-26 eating disorder screening results from electronic health records. We compared DEB prevalence to established estimates from the general adolescent population (p
resultsOf 92 participants, 49 % identified as male; 9 % had obesity, 63 % had an AD parent, and 81 % were Navy families. DEB prevalence was 13 %, no different from the general population. Obesity and having a parent in the Air Force were associated with higher ChEAT-26 score. There was no significant difference in DEB risk by gender or sex.
conclusionsDEB prevalence in military-dependent adolescents is estimated at 13 %, similar to previous reports in the general population, and obesity is associated with higher DEB risk. Military dependent males may have comparable DEB risk to females, reinforcing the importance of universal DEB screening in adolescents, and of changing the narrative of who is at risk for DEB.
