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

<p>Introduction: The aim of this study was to examine associations between psychological and behavioural factors and body weight, appetite, satiety, and food cravings in individuals with obesity receiving incretin therapy.

methodsBetween January and February 2025, 411 adults completed an online survey. They provided data using the Weight Efficacy Lifestyle Questionnaire - Short Form, the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire, and the Salzburg Emotional Eating Scale, and rated their perceptions of satiety, appetite, and food cravings. Multivariable linear and logistic regression analyses were used to assess associations between psychological factors and these outcomes, adjusting for relevant confounders.

resultsThe sample was mainly female (71.8%), with a median age of 40 years (Q1-Q3: 33-47). Participants had a median treatment duration of 43 weeks (Q1-Q3: 30-58) and a median body mass index (BMI) difference of 5.9 kg/m2 (Q1-Q3: 4.0-7.4). In fully adjusted models, higher self-efficacy was associated with lower BMI values (β = -0.22; p < 0.001) and greater satiety (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.46; p < 0.001). Emotional eating in response to happiness was related to higher BMI (β = 0.46; p < 0.001) but also to higher satiety and lower cravings (AOR = 1.31-1.41; p < 0.05).

conclusionEating self-efficacy and emotion-related eating patterns were linked to body weight, appetite, satiety, and cravings. Considering these psychological profiles may help tailor behavioural support, improve adherence, and enhance the effectiveness of incretin-based therapy. </p>.
