1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPrevious studies have shown that sexual objectification experience is closely related to eating disorders in adolescent female students, but the mechanisms and conditions under which online sexual objectification experience influences disordered eating in female college students need to be further explored. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the mediating and moderating variables of the relationship between online sexual objectification experience and disordered eating, and to provide suggestions for the prevention of disordered eating among female college students.

methodsA total of 651 female college students were tested with Online Sexual Objectification Experience Scale, Body Surveillance Scale, Physical Exercise Scale and Disordered Eating Scale. The mediating role of body surveillance and the moderating role of physical exercise were examined using the latent structural equation approach and Model 15 in version 3.5 of the Process macro program, respectively.

resultsOnline sexual objectification experience, body surveillance, and female college students' restrictive eating, emotional eating, and exogenous eating were significantly and positively correlated with each other; body surveillance mediated the relationship between online sexual objectification experience and female college students' restrictive eating, emotional eating, and exogenous eating, respectively; physical exercise significantly and negatively moderated the relationship between online sexual objectification experience and female college students' restrictive eating, and the higher the level of physical exercise, the lower the predictive effect of online sexual objectification experience on female college students' restrictive eating.

conclusionsBody surveillance mediated the relationship between online sexual objectification experience and disordered eating among female college students, and physical exercise only moderated the relationship between online sexual objectification experience and restrictive eating among female college students.
