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

purpose of reviewResearch on Autism in eating disorders (EDs) has historically focused on anorexia nervosa (AN), with comparatively limited attention given to binge-type EDs such as bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED). This review summarises emerging evidence on Autism in binge-type EDs and highlights key clinical and research implications. RECENT

findingsEmerging evidence suggests that Autism is over-represented in BN and BED, although prevalence appears lower than in AN and research remains methodologically limited. Recent studies suggest that affective and reward-related processes, alongside sensory differences, may contribute to binge-type presentations. Co-occurring ADHD appears particularly relevant and may complicate recognition, clinical presentation, and treatment. Autism also remains under-recognised in binge-type EDs by ED services, where existing adaptations remain largely derived from AN models. Current AN-centric models may inadequately capture Neurodivergence in binge-type EDs. More transdiagnostic, mechanism-informed research and treatment approaches are needed.
