Promoting Behavioral Change in Mobile Health Interventions for Older Adults: A Scoping Review.
Article in Research in gerontological nursing, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
The current study reviewed the effectiveness of mobile health interventions in eliciting behavioral change across a range of health conditions and examined integration of behavioral change theory, techniques, and agents in interventions among people age ≥60. The initial search returned 1,929 articles: 779 in PubMed, 522 in CINAHL, 633 in PsycINFO, and 131 in EMBASE. The final sample included 20 articles. Most interventions targeted and reported increases in physical activity and disease and medication management. Some studies were informed by behavioral change theories and included behavioral change agents. The most commonly used behavior change techniques were in the form of self- or external-monitoring and receiving tailored feedback on a person's progress. As the National Institutes of Health currently calls for an increased focus on mechanisms of change, future studies should specify features promoting behavioral change and consider whether interventions worked by engaging the hypothesized change mechanisms.
