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.

Abstract
Objective: Describe perspectives of teens and caregivers regarding motivations, successes, and challenges related to participation in ACTION PAC (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02502383), a two-year weight management trial. Methods: Intervention group participants received 16 short motivational interviewing (MI) sessions with school-based health center (SBHC) primary care clinicians over two years. Post-study, we conducted semi-structured interviews with purposefully sampled intervention group teens and their caregivers. Interviews were audio recorded, transcribed, and managed in NVivo 11. Three independent coders analyzed the data, developed a coding tree, examined how codes intersected and clarified relationships through memo writing. Results: The clinician's role and use of motivational interviewing and family involvement in behavior changes were cited as critical to success. Some adolescents noted difficulty in sustaining behavior changes post-intervention and social and systemic barriers to behavior change. Conclusion: Future studies should identify strategies to sustain teen motivation, better involve families, and address systemic barriers. Innovation: In this study, which simulated real-world SBHC conditions, adolescents appreciated the use of an MI approach and felt that was key to their success, indicating the potential to continue use of this approach to motivating behavior changes in SBHC settings.
