Trial report in Pediatric obesity, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07514390 (The Effect of Family-based Health Behavior Development Program on Obesity Risk Factors and Body Mass Index in Obese and Overweight Primary Scholl Children), which is not on this map.

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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundAttrition and treatment adherence are notorious challenges in paediatric obesity interventions.

objectiveTo evaluate if brief, pretreatment motivational interviewing (MI) can improve retention (at baseline, post-assessment and follow-up assessment) and adherence (i.e. attendance) in a parent-exclusive paediatric obesity intervention.

methodsMI was implemented with parents as an adjunct to a larger randomized controlled trial of Nourishing Our Understanding of Role-modeling to Improve Support and Health (NOURISH

resultsParents (91% women; 52% African American) who completed one telephone MI session were more likely to attend baseline (74%) compared with parents who received reminder calls only (53%, p < .001). After a second MI session, there were no group differences in treatment initiation (p > .05). Treatment attendance, post or 4-month follow-up assessment completion did not differ between conditions (p > .05).

conclusionOne MI session implemented prior to treatment can improve baseline attendance; a second MI session did not enhance these effects. A single-session telephone-based MI pretreatment might be a cost and time-effective strategy to enhance recruitment efforts. Further strategies to address retention and treatment attendance are needed.
