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.

Abstract

objectivesTo assess, in terms of self-efficacy in weight management, the effectiveness of the SLIM lifestyle intervention among overweight or obese women during pregnancy and after delivery, and further to exploit machine learning and event mining approaches to build personalized models. Additionally, the aim is to evaluate the implementation of the SLIM intervention.

methodsThis prospective trial, which is a non-randomized, quasi-experimental, pre-post intervention, includes an embedded mixed-method process evaluation. The SLIM Intervention is delivered by public health nurses (n = 9) working in maternity clinics. The public health nurses recruited overweight women (n = 54) at their first antenatal visit using convenience sampling. The core components of the intervention i.e. health technology, motivational interviewing, feedback, and goal setting, are utilized in antenatal visits in maternity clinics starting from gestational week 15 or less and continuing to 12 weeks after delivery. Mixed effect models are used to evaluate change over time in self-efficacy, weight management and weight change. Simple mediation models are used to assess calories consumed and moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) as mediators between self-efficacy and weight change. Signal processing and machine learning techniques are exploited to extract events from the data collected via the Oura ring and smartphone-based questionnaires. DISCUSSION: The SLIM intervention was developed in collaboration with overweight women and public health nurses working in maternity clinics. This study evaluates the effectiveness of the intervention among overweight women in increasing self-efficacy and achieving a healthy weight; thus, impacting the healthy lifestyle and long-term health of the whole family. The long-term objective is to contribute to women's health by supporting weight-management through behavior change via interventions conducted in maternity clinics.

trial registrationThe trial was registered at the Clinicaltrials.gov register platform (ID NCT04826861) on 17 March 2021.
