Culturally responsive approaches to health promotion for Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders.
Review in Annals of human biology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 80 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
contextObesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD) have reached epidemic proportions among Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders (NHPI). Culturally responsive interventions that account for their interpersonal, sociocultural and socioeconomic realities are a public health priority.
objectiveTo describe cultural adaptation and culturally grounded approaches to developing health interventions for NHPI and to review the culturally responsive approaches used by, and outcomes from, two long-standing community-based participatory research projects (CBPR) in Hawai'i: PILI 'Ohana and KāHOLO Projects.
methodsA literature review of 14 studies from these two projects was done to exemplify the methods applied to culturally adapting existing evidence-based interventions and to developing novel interventions from the 'ground up' to address health disparities in NHPI. Of the 14 studies reviewed, 11 were studies of the clinical and behavioural outcomes of both types of interventions.
resultsBoth culturally adapted and culturally grounded approaches using community-based assets and NHPI cultural values/practices led to establishing sustainable and scalable interventions that significantly improved clinical measures of obesity, diabetes and hypertension.
conclusionSeveral recommendations are provided based on the lessons learned from the PILI 'Ohana and KāHOLO Projects. Multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary research using CBPR approaches are needed to elucidate how human biology is impacted by societal, environmental and psychological factors that increase the risk for cardiometabolic diseases among NHPI to develop more effective health promotion interventions and public health policies.
