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

Two randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in Brazil and Peru demonstrated the effectiveness of CONEMO, a digital intervention supported by trained nurses or nurse assistants (NAs), to reduce depressive symptoms in people with diabetes and/or hypertension. This paper extends the RCTs findings by reflecting on the conditions needed for its wider implementation in routine care services. A qualitative study using semi-structured interviews and content analysis was conducted with nurses/NAs, clinicians, healthcare administrators, and policymakers. Informants reported that CONEMO would be feasible to implement in their health services, but some conditions could be improved before its scale-up: reducing workloads of healthcare workers; raising mental health awareness among clinicians and administrators; being able to inform, deliver and accompany the intervention; assuring appropriate training and supervision of nurses/NAs; and supporting the use of technology in public health services and by patients, especially older ones. We discuss some suggestions on how to overcome these challenges.
