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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveEvidence-based lifestyle interventions tailored to young adults with serious mental illness are needed to reduce their cardiometabolic risk. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a group lifestyle intervention ("PeerFIT") enhanced with mobile health (mHealth) compared with one-on-one mHealth coaching (basic education supported by activity tracking [BEAT]) for young adults with serious mental illness who were overweight or obese.

methodsParticipants were young adults ages 18-35 years with serious mental illness and a body mass index ≥25 kg/m

resultsParticipants were 150 young adults with a mean ± SD body mass index of 37.1±7.4. Intent-to-treat analyses revealed no significant between-group difference for weight-loss, CRF, or CVD outcomes at 6 and 12 months. Participants in both conditions achieved clinically significant CVD risk reduction, weight loss, and CRF from baseline to 6 and 12 months, and all these improvements were statistically significant (p<0.01).

conclusionThe PeerFIT group lifestyle intervention was not superior to one-on-one mHealth coaching in achieving clinically significant changes in weight, CRF, and CVD risk reduction. Although both interventions improved outcomes, low-intensity mHealth coaching may be a more scalable approach for addressing modifiable cardiometabolic risk factors among young adults with serious mental illness.
