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

objectiveTechnology-enabled services frequently have limited reach and suboptimal engagement when implemented in real-world settings. One reason for these implementation failures is that technology-enabled services are not designed for the users and contexts in which they will be implemented. User-centered design is an approach to designing technologies and services that is grounded in information from the stakeholders who will be using or impacted by them, and the contexts for implementation. The purpose of this article is to present user-centered design methods that can be applied to technology-enabled services for eating disorders.

methodWe provide an overview of the user-centered design process, which is iterative and involves stakeholders throughout. One model is presented that depicts six phases of a user-centered design process: investigate, ideate, prototype, evaluate, refine and develop, and validate.

resultsWe then review how user-centered design approaches can be applied to designing technology-enabled services for patients with eating disorders, and we integrate a hypothetical case example that demonstrates the application of these techniques to designing a technology-enabled service for binge eating. Most of the user-centered design techniques can be implemented relatively quickly, allowing us to rapidly learn what stakeholders want and to identify problems before devoting time and resources to developing and delivering technologies and services. DISCUSSION: Through this work, we show how designing services that fit into the patterns and routines that stakeholders already are doing can ensure that services are relevant to stakeholders and meet their needs, potentially improving engagement and clinical impact. RESUMEN: Los servicios habilitados tecnológicamente frecuentemente tienen un alcance limitado y un involucramiento subóptimo cuando son implementados en escenarios del mundo real. Una razón para estas fallas de implementación es que los servicios habilitados tecnológicamente no están diseñados para los usuarios y contextos en los que serán implementados. El diseño centrado en el usuario es un abordaje para diseñar tecnologías y servicios que está basado en información de las partes interesadas que estarán haciendo uso o impactados por ellos, y los contextos para implementación. El propósito de este estudio es presentar métodos de diseños centrados en el usuario que pueden ser aplicados a servicios habilitados tecnológicamente para trastornos de la conducta alimentaria. Ofrecemos una visión general del proceso de diseño centrado en el usuario, que es iterative e involucra a las partes interesadas a lo largo de todo el proceso. Hemos presentado un modelo que describe seis fases de un proceso de diseño centrado en el usuario: investigar, idear, crear prototipos, evaluar, refinar y desarrollar, y validar. Luego revisamos cómo estos abordajes de diseño centrado en el usuario pueden ser aplicados para diseñar servicios habilitados tecnológicamente para pacientes con trastornos de la conducta alimentaria, e integramos un ejemplo de caso hipotético que demuestra la aplicación de estas técnicas para diseñar un servicio habilitado tecnológicamente para comer en atracones. Muchas de las técnicas de diseño centrado en el usuario pueden ser implementadas relativamente rápido, lo que nos permite aprender rápidamente lo que las partes interesadas quieren e identificar los problemas antes de dedicarles tiempo y recursos al desarrollo y entrega de tecnologías y servicios. A través de este trabajo, mostramos cómo el diseño de servicios que se ajustan a los patrones y rutinas que las partes interesadas ya están haciendo puede garantizar que los servicios sean relevantes para los interesados y que satisfagan sus necesidades, lo que podría mejorar la participación y el impacto clínico.
