Impact of an Internet-Based Lifestyle Intervention on Behavioral and Psychosocial Factors During Postpartum Weight Loss.
Trial report in Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 3 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
objectiveThis cluster randomized trial tested whether an effective internet-based weight-loss intervention for low-income, postpartum women resulted in greater improvements in targeted social cognitive theory (SCT) constructs and psychosocial outcomes.
methodsFit Moms/Mamás Activas was a 12-month cluster randomized controlled trial of 370 postpartum women at 12 Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, Children (WIC) clinics that were randomly assigned to intervention or standard WIC. SCT constructs (weight-control behaviors, cognitive restraint, disinhibition, self-efficacy, social support, body image) and psychosocial outcomes (depressive symptoms and stress) were measured at study entry and after 6 and 12 months.
resultsThe intervention versus standard WIC resulted in greater 12-month increases in weight-control behaviors (3.28 points [95% CI: 1.06-5.50]), self-monitoring of weight and eating (2.28 points [1.17-3.40]), and cognitive restraint (1.93 points [0.78-3.08]) (all P ≤ 0.004). The intervention effect was only modestly (η
conclusionsAmong low-income postpartum women, an effective internet-based weight-loss program resulted in improved weight-control behaviors and cognitive restraint but did not affect other SCT targets and psychosocial outcomes.
