Response to school-based interventions for overweight and obesity: A systematic scoping review.
Article in Clinical obesity, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Heterogeneity of response to paediatric obesity interventions is one of the greatest challenges to obesity care. While evaluating school-based interventions by mean changes compared to control is important, it does not provide an understanding of the individual variability in response to intervention. The objective of this study was to comprehensively review school-based interventions that reported study results in terms of response and identify definitions of response used. A scoping review was conducted using a systematic search of five scientific databases from 2009 to 2021. Inclusion criteria included randomized controlled trial design, school-based setting, weight-based outcomes (e.g., BMI, BMI z-score), weight-based outcomes analysed among youth with overweight/obesity, a study conducted in a developed country and publication in English. A total of 26 reports representing 25 unique studies were included. Overall, 19% (5/26) of articles reported response. Response was defined in three ways: maintenance/decrease in BMI z-score, decrease in BMI z-score ≥0.10, and decrease in BMI z-score ≥0.20. Few school-based interventions identified an a priori intervention goal or identified the proportion of participants who responded to the intervention. Without such evaluation participants who do not benefit are likely to be overlooked.
