Perspectives on caregiver-focused MHealth Technologies to improve mental health treatment for low-income youth with ADHD.
Article in Journal of technology in behavioral science, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 2 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
objectiveTo examine stakeholder perspectives regarding: (1) whether mobile health (MHealth) tools can improve the mental health (MH) treatment process for low-income youth with ADHD in safety net settings; and (2) what functions would be helpful to improve the treatment process.
methodsThis study analyzed qualitative data from a larger project that collected information from key stakeholders at four safety-net clinics across Georgia. We conducted five focus groups with caregivers who had a Medicaid-insured child receiving treatment for ADHD, and 17 semi-structured interviews with clinic administrators and providers. Stakeholders shared their perspectives on strategies to improve the MH treatment process, including the use of mHealth tools. Caregivers also completed a brief survey about technology use. We present findings from a thematic analysis of the qualitative data and descriptive findings from the survey.
resultsParticipants in each group of stakeholders expressed interest in mHealth tools that would: (1) deliver reminders for caregivers (including appointment and medication refill reminders); (2) help caregivers obtain information about ADHD symptoms and treatment options; (3) help caregivers track information about their child's symptoms and treatment progress; and (4) facilitate communication between caregivers and providers. While more than three-fourths of caregivers had a smartphone, providers and administrators expressed concern that access to mHealth technologies may be inconsistent if low-income families are unable to pay cellular phone bills.
conclusionsCaregivers, clinic administrators, and providers were supportive of enhanced mHealth technologies to improve MH care for this population.
