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.

Abstract

Adults with serious mental illness have high rates of obesity, with associated negative impacts on health-related quality of life. The present study utilized data from a randomized controlled trial (N = 276) to examine the effectiveness of in-person and online-delivered weight management interventions, compared to usual care, for improving health-related quality of life in this population. Participants completed quality of life assessments at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Mixed effects models examined group by time interactions. Compared to usual care, in-person MOVE was associated with improvements in loneliness (t = - 2.76, p = .006) and mental health related quality of life (t = 1.99, p = 0.048) at 6 months, and webMOVE was associated with improvements in weight-related self-esteem at 6 months (t = 2.23, p = .026) and mental health-related quality of life at 3 months (t = 2.17, p = 0.031) and 6 months (t = 2.38, p = .018). Web-based and in-person weight management led to improvements in health-related quality of life for adults with serious mental illness.ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00983476.
