Barriers to participation in web-based and in-person weight management interventions for serious mental illness.
Trial report in Psychiatric rehabilitation journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 3 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
objectiveThis study examines barriers to participation and retention in 2 modalities (web-based and in-person) of a weight-management intervention tailored for individuals with serious mental illness (SMI).
methodUsing a mixed-methods approach, we explored the barriers veterans with SMI face when participating in a web-based (WebMOVE) or in-person (MOVE-SMI) version of the same SMI-adapted MOVE weight-management program. Participants in the randomized controlled trial (n = 277) were recruited from specialty mental health clinics at a Veterans Affairs medical center. Barriers were analyzed across treatment condition and program attendance (engagement) at baseline and follow-up using a generalized lineal model. Post hoc analyses assessed whether changes in the trajectory of barriers over time were associated with engagement. A subsample of participants (n = 48) from the WebMOVE and MOVE-SMI treatment conditions completed a qualitative interview, and 2 coders used open coding to analyze the data.
resultsAlthough barriers specific to treatment modality existed, most barriers cut across intervention modality, including financial hardship, lack of reliable housing and transportation, comorbid physical and mental health issues, and competing demands on personal time. Results of post hoc analyses found the association between engagement and emotional and motivational factors to be statistically significant.
conclusionsThis study is the 1st to identify barriers in a web-based intervention for SMI. Similar barriers persisted across treatment modalities. Known barriers, particularly socioeconomic barriers, should be addressed to improve engagement and retention of individuals in weight-management interventions adapted for SMI, irrespective of modality.
