The NEW Keiki Program Reduces BMI z-scores Among Overweight and Obese Children and BMI Among Their Adult Caregivers in Hawai'i.
Article in Hawai'i journal of health & social welfare, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 high prevalence of childhood obesity highlights the need for effective weight management interventions. This study evaluated a family-based weight management program (Nutrition+Exercise+Weight Management; NEW Keiki) in overweight and obese children and their adult caregivers. Data were collected on overweight (body mass index, BMI = 85th-94th percentile) and obese (BMI > 95th percentile) children (n = 75, 5-14 years) and their adult caregivers (n = 104). Seventy-one percent of the enrolled children identified as Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, and/or Filipino (NHPI+F). Families participated weekly in a multidisciplinary lifestyle program for 8-9 weeks (intervention phase); follow-up visits occurred at 6-months and 12-months post-intervention. Long-term data (14-50 months post intervention) were collected by chart review for the children. Change in children's BMI z-score and adult BMI were analyzed. The effects of ethnicity, acceptance of government assistance, and program attendance were evaluated. Participants identifying as NHPI+F and/or receiving government assistance had higher baseline BMI z-scores and BMIs. In children, BMI z-score decreased from baseline at all evaluation visits (-0.05 at 2 months [
