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

Lifestyle interventions can facilitate healthy gestational weight gain but attending in-person meetings can be challenging. High rates of use and the popularity of pregnancy content suggests Instagram as a possible platform for delivering gestational weight gain interventions. We assessed the logistics and acceptability of creating a private Instagram group and to obtain feedback on intervention posts. We conducted a 2-week study with pregnant women with pre-pregnancy overweight or obesity who use Instagram daily. Participants created a private Instagram account and followed other participants and a moderator who shared twice-daily posts about physical activity and healthy eating during pregnancy. Participants provided feedback through a follow-up survey and focus group/interviews. Engagement data was abstracted from Instagram. Participants (N = 11) were on average 26.3 (SD: 7.4) weeks gestation and 54% had obesity pre-pregnancy. All participants followed the moderator's account, 73% followed all other participants, participants engaged with 100% of study posts, 82% felt comfortable sharing in the group, and 73% would participate in a similar group if pregnant in the future. While participants felt the posts were visually attractive and included helpful information, they wanted more personalized content and felt reluctant to post photos they felt were not "Instagram worthy." Moderators should foster an environment in which participants feel comfortable posting unedited, authentic photos of their lives, perhaps by sharing personal photos that are relatable and represent their own imperfect lives. Results will inform further development and testing of an Instagram-delivered gestational weight gain intervention.
