1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

No prior studies have examined how interventionists' perceptions of participants' weight control challenges or the agreement between participants and interventionists on these perceptions relate to outcomes during group-based behavioral weight loss treatment. This study characterized participants' and interventionists' perceptions of, and agreement about, weight control challenges and assessed how these factors relate to weight loss. Three months into treatment, participants and interventionists independently selected three weight control challenges believed to be most relevant for each participant. Weight was measured at baseline, 3 months, and 12 months. Interventionists and participants had "no" (κ < 0) or "slight" (0 < κ< .20) agreement on most challenges. Although endorsement of certain challenges by participants and/or interventionists was related to 3- and 12-month weight losses, agreement between participants and interventionists was unrelated to weight loss at either time point. Additional research is needed to better understand the role of perceived challenges and participant/interventionist agreement about challenges on treatment outcomes.
