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
objectiveThe effectiveness of the Peer-led Group Lifestyle Balance (PGLB) intervention, a 12-month manualized healthy lifestyle intervention delivered by peer specialists, was investigated in a sample of persons with serious mental illness who were overweight or obese and living in supportive housing.
methodsThe authors randomly assigned 314 participants from three supportive housing agencies to PGLB or usual care, with assessments at baseline and 6, 12, and 18 months. Outcomes were clinically significant changes from baseline in weight (≥5% weight loss), cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF; increase of ≥50 meters in the 6-minute walk test), and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk reduction (clinically significant weight loss or CRF improvement).
resultsMost participants were from racial-ethnic minority groups (82%, N=255). The mean±SD baseline weight of this sample was 218.8±54.0 pounds, and the body mass index was 33.7±7.2. Compared with the usual care group, a larger proportion of the PGLB group achieved clinically significant changes in study outcomes at 12 and 18 months, but none of these changes was statistically significant. Outcomes differed by site: two sites reported no significant differences between the two groups, and one reported that PGLB significantly outperformed usual care on clinically significant weight loss at 18 months and CVD risk reduction at 6 and 12 months.
conclusionsThe null findings indicate that PGLB was not superior to usual care in helping participants achieve clinically significant changes in weight, CRF, and CVD risk reduction at 12 and 18 months. Questions remain regarding how PGLB works, for whom, and in which settings.
