A nutrition and lifestyle-focused shared medical appointment in a resource-challenged community setting: a mixed-methods study.
Article in BMC public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06460272 (NOURISH HEARTS), which is not on this map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.

Abstract
backgroundIn order to address disparities in preventable chronic diseases, we adapted a nutrition and lifestyle-focused shared medical appointment (SMA) program to be delivered in an underserved community setting. The objective was to evaluate a community-based nutrition and lifestyle-focused SMA as it relates to acceptability and health and behavior-related outcomes.
methodsA mixed-methods study was performed to evaluate pre-post changes in wellness indices, biometrics, self-efficacy, and trust in medical researchers as part of a community-based SMA. To understand program acceptability including barriers and facilitators for implementation and scalability, we conducted two participant focus groups and five stakeholder interviews and used content analysis to determine major themes.
resultsFifteen participants attended 10 weekly sessions. The majority were older adult, African American women. There were pre-post improvements in mean [SD] systolic (-10.5 [7.7] mmHg, p = 0.0001) and diastolic (-4.7 [6.7] mmHg, p = 0.17) blood pressures and weight (-5.7 [6.3] pounds, p = 0.003) at 3 months though these were not significant at 6 months. More individuals reported improvements in health status, daily fruit and vegetable intake, and sleep than at baseline. There were no significant pre-post changes in other wellness indices, self-efficacy, trust in medical researchers, hemoglobin A1c, insulin, or LDL cholesterol. Participants discussed positive health changes as a result of the SMA program, program preferences, and facilitators and barriers to continuing program recommendations in focus groups. SMA implementation was facilitated by clinical staff who adjusted content to a low health literacy group and partnership with a trusted community partner. Sustainability barriers include heavy personnel time and in-kind resources to deliver the program.
conclusionsNutrition and lifestyle-focused SMAs in a resource-challenged community setting may be an acceptable intervention for underserved patients.
