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
Behavioral economics is a field of knowledge and practices that studies the effect of psychological, cognitive, emotional, and social factors relating to decision-making by individuals and institutions. It assumes that human choices are not the result of careful consideration of costs and benefits, and that some aspects (e.g., defaults, framings, and anchoring effects) may influence an individual's decision-making. Thus, the aim of this essay is to present some general aspects of behavioral economics and discuss its possible application in the promotion of healthy behaviors. One of the roles of health care professionals is to facilitate the adoption of healthy behaviors by the population. There is evidence of a positive influence of some behavioral economics concepts regarding the adoption of various health behaviors, such as food choices, physical activity, adherence to vaccination campaigns, and organ donation. Thus, it is believed that the appropriation of some of these concepts and insights may both promote healthier behaviors and support more effective actions to encourage these healthy behaviors.
