Depression treatment delivered at the point-of-care: a qualitative assessment of the views of low-income US mothers.
Article in Journal of reproductive and infant psychology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectiveWithin the first months of childbirth, clinically significant depressive symptoms are experienced by 19% of mothers in the US, and are even more prevalent among low-income and ethnic-minority women. Paradoxically, low-income and ethnic-minority mothers are faced with unique barriers that make them less likely to receive professional mental health care. To find ways to remove these barriers, a recent US trial extended use of a United Kingdom intervention, Listening Visits (LV), an evidence-based treatment delivered by home visitors/office nursing staff.
methodsA qualitative content analysis was conducted with participants' (N=19 in an open trial and N=49 in a randomized controlled trial) responses to a post-treatment semi-structured interview assessing their views of LV. The percentage of participants endorsing each thematic code is presented.
resultsWhen the provider first introduced the LV intervention, 77.9% of women retrospectively reported having positive views of trying this new approach. Recipients most frequently mentioned as helpful two aspects of LV: empathic listening/support and the collaborative style of the LV provider. Half of the women (50%) did not suggest changes to how LV were delivered. Among those who suggested changes, the most frequent (42.6%) suggestion was to increase the number/duration of sessions.
conclusionListening Visits is an acceptable depression treatment approach, as perceived by low-income, ethnic-minority mothers, which health and social service providers who serve this population can use.
