Usability Testing of a mHealth App to Support Self-Management of HIV-Associated Non-AIDS Related Symptoms.
Article in Studies in health technology and informatics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
Mobile health (mHealth) applications (apps) are uniquely poised to offer the information that persons living with HIV (PLWH) need to manage the symptoms associated with their chronic condition. The purpose of this study was to assess the usability of a mHealth app designed to help PLWH self-man-age the symptoms associated with their HIV and HIV-associated non-AIDS (HANA) conditions. We conducted a heuristic evaluation with five experts in informatics and end-user testing with 20 PLWH. End-users completed the PSSUQ and Health-ITUES validated measures of system usability. Mean severity scores for the 10-item heuristic checklist com-pleted by experts ranged from 0.4-2.4. End-users gave the system high scores on the PSSUQ and Health-ITUES usability measures (mean 2.23 ± 0.83 and 4.24 ± 0.62 respectively). Results indicated the system is usable and will be ready for future efficacy testing after incorporation of recommended feedback.
