Meta-analysis on eating disorder symptomatology in transgender men and women versus. cisgender men and women. Forest plots on transgender men and transgender women versus cisgender men and women. The pooled estimates have been computed with a random-effects model because of the levels of heterogeneity. The global scores for Khoosal et al. [6], Roberts et al. [51], Vocks et al. [48], and Witcomb et al. [21] were computed with the upper bound for the variance given that only subscales are reported. Note that Rabito-Alcón and Rodríguez-Molina [7] and Peterson et al. [45] reported results only for pooled groups of cisgender individuals. The instruments used in these studies are the EAT-26, EAT-40, EDE-Q, EDI (with the same three subscales), and EPSI
