Testing a Mobile App for Participatory Research to Identify Teen-Targeted Food Marketing: Mixed Methods Study.
Article in JMIR formative research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundMobile apps are not only effective tools for promoting health to teenagers but are also useful for engaging teenagers in participatory research on factors that influence their health. Given the impact of food marketing messages on teenagers' food attitudes and consumption choices, it is important to develop effective methods for capturing the food advertisements targeted at this population to assess their content.
objectiveThe aim of this study was to test the feasibility and usability of a mobile app, "GrabFM!" ("Grab Food Marketing!"), designed for teenagers to facilitate monitoring of self-identified targeted food marketing messaging.
methodsA mixed methods approach, including quantitative user response rates and qualitative focus group discussion feedback, was used in the evaluation process.
resultsA total of 62 teenagers (ages 13-17) completed GrabFM! app pilot testing over a 7-day data collection period. Teenagers submitted a total of 339 examples of food marketing, suggesting high feasibility for the app. Participants also took part in focus group discussions about their experience, providing positive feedback on usability, including ease of use and design aesthetic appeal.
conclusionsThe GrabFM! app had high feasibility and usability, suggesting its efficacy in capturing accurate data relevant to the teenage population's experience with food marketing messaging.
