Predicting Metabolic and Cardiovascular Healthy from Nutritional Patterns and Psychological State Among Overweight and Obese Young Adults: A Neural Network Approach.

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 AND
objectivesOverweight and obesity are global public health problems, as they increase the risk of chronic diseases, reduce quality of life, and generate a significant economic and healthcare burden. This study evaluates the capacity of nutritional patterns and psychological status to predict the presence of cardiometabolic risk among overweight and obese young adults, from a neural network approach.
methodThe study included
resultsThe predictive models demonstrated differences in specificity and sensitivity capacity depending on the criteria employed for the classification of MUO/MHO and gender. Among the female subsample, MUO was predicted by poor diet (low consumption of mineral and vitamins, and high consumption of fats and sodium) and high levels of depression and stress, while among the male subsample high body mass index (BMI), depression, and anxiety were the key factors. Protective factors associated to MHO were lower BMI, lower psychopathology distress and more balanced diets. Predictive models based on the HOMA-IR criterion yielded very high specificity and low sensibility (high capacity to identify MHO but low accuracy to identify MUO). The models based on the IDF criterion achieved excellent discriminative capacity for men (specificity and sensitivity around 92.5%), while the model for women obtained excellent sensitivity and low specificity.
conclusionsThe results provide empirical support for personalized prevention and treatment programs, accounting for individual differences with the aim of promoting healthy habits among young adults, especially during university education.
