The Meaning of Weight: A Big Way of Life for Rural Mexican-American Adolescent Men and Caregivers.
Article in Public health nursing (Boston, Mass.), 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01387646 (Behavioral Intervention for Minority Adolescent Women), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
objectiveTo describe the meaning of body weight among rural Mexican-American adolescents (RMAA) and an influential person (IP) of their social network. DESIGN AND SAMPLE: This is qualitative descriptive study. Convenience sampling was used to recruit RMAA seeking care at a rural primary care-based clinic. Content analysis was used to identify categories and subcategories. Fifteen male adolescents and 14 IPs were interviewed (n = 29). MEASURES: Individual interviews were conducted using a semi-structured questionnaire.
resultsParticipants described body weight through family norms, body size, and history of heart disease or diabetes. Cultural scripts were used to describe weight gain, judgment of size, and resource limitations.
conclusionsHealth care providers must evaluate cultural scripts associated with body size to develop interventions that are derived from the meaning ascribed to weight status rather than simply based on evidence-based standards. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01387646.
