Motivating Mexican American adults to share family history with healthcare providers.

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
Family history of metabolic conditions is a primary factor for clinicians to consider when administering preventive care. Sharing this information with healthcare providers proactively is therefore important to individual health outcomes. This brief report seeks to identify factors associated with sharing family history with healthcare providers in individuals of Mexican heritage. Data were obtained from a health education intervention study conducted during 2008-2010, which recruited 497 adult participants from 162 multigenerational households in Houston, Texas to receive family history-based risk feedback generated by Family Healthware™. Households were randomized to receive a pedigree of metabolic conditions or a pedigree coupled with supplementary information about one's personalized risk assessment and behavioral recommendations. Participants completed two follow-up surveys at three and ten months post intervention, respectively. Analysis based on 296 participants from 147 households who read but did not share their feedback at three-month follow-up suggests benefits of providing personalized risk assessment and tailored behavioral recommendations in addition to a simple pedigree. Participants receiving supplementary risk feedback are more likely to share it with family members at three-month follow-up, which is associated with increased sharing and willingness to share risk feedback with healthcare providers at ten-month follow-up. The findings highlight the importance of family relationships in medical information disclosure in Mexican American adults. Future interventions should capitalize on family relationships in health education and promotion programs for optimal prevention of metabolic conditions in at-risk populations.
