Promoting weight-loss maintenance among Black women primary care patients: A cluster RCT of a culturally sensitive versus standard behavioural approach.
Trial report in Clinical obesity, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03418701 (Culturally Sensitive Primary Care Clinic-based Interventions by Community Health Workers and Trained Physicians to Promote and Sustain Weight Loss Among Obese Black Women Patients), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 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
The prevalence of obesity is higher among Black women (56.6%) compared to Hispanic women (50%) and non-Hispanic White women (42%). Notably, interventions to reduce obesity typically result in initial weight loss that is not maintained. This study tested (a) the effectiveness of a 6-month Health-Smart Weight Loss (HSWL) Program for Black women patients with obesity implemented by community health workers (CHWs) within primary care clinics and (b) the comparative effectiveness of two 12-month physician-implemented weight loss maintenance programs-a Patient-Centred Culturally Sensitive Weight Loss Maintenance Program (PCCS-WLM Program) and a Standard Behavioural Weight Loss Maintenance Program (SB-WLM Program). Black women patients (N = 683) with obesity from 20 community primary care clinics participated in the HSWL Program and were then randomized to either maintenance program. The HSWL Program led to significant weight loss (i.e., 2.7 pounds, 1.22 kg, p < .01, -1.1%) among the participants. Participants in both the PCCS-WLM Program and the SB-WLM Program maintained their weight loss; however, at month 18, participants in the PCCS-WLM Program had a significantly lower weight than those in the SB-WLM (i.e., 231.9 vs. 239.4 pounds or 105.19 vs. 108.59 kg). This study suggests that (a) the HSWL Program can produce significant weight loss among Black women patients with obesity when implemented in primary care clinics by CHWs, and (b) primary care physicians can be trained to successfully promote weight loss maintenance among their Black women patients.
