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

Objective: From an integrated perspective combining sociocultural theory and self-determination theory, this study examined whether body image state and exercise addiction sequentially mediate the relationship between perfectionism and emotional eating. Methods: A cross-sectional design was adopted. A total of 1,307 Chinese college students (aged 18-24 years, Results: Correlation analysis revealed a significant positive association between perfectionism and emotional eating. Mediation analysis indicated that perfectionism was associated with emotional eating through three indirect pathways (as indicated by bias-corrected bootstrap 95% confidence intervals that did not contain zero). (a) Conclusion: The findings suggest that perfectionism is directly and positively associated with emotional eating among college students, and that this association operates through three indirect pathways, including a sequential pathway
