Survey-based Evaluation of a Fish Consumption Information Dissemination Campaign Within an Integrated Health System: Learnings From ChooseYourFish.
Article in Journal of primary care & community health. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
INTRODUCTION/
objectivesSafe fish consumption is important for people who are or could become pregnant. A health system in Minnesota partnered with the Minnesota Department of Health to develop and disseminate messages to promote safe fish consumption for this population via the ChooseYourFish initiative. The ChooseYourFish message was delivered through 5 channels: the Healthy Pregnancy Program (HPP) with phone-based coaching, a clinic brochure, in the clinic after visit summary (AVS), direct mailing of the brochure with a letter, and in images on clinic waiting room monitors.
methodsWe designed a pragmatic evaluation to understand the likelihood that each channel would result in awareness of the message and increase a recipient's intent to act on the information. We surveyed 1050 women aged 18 to 40 in March-May 2020. Results are reported with descriptive statistics.
resultsThe survey was completed by 524 respondents (51%). Respondents receiving the ChooseYourFish message through any channel except clinic monitors reported a higher awareness of recommendations about eating fish (42%-56%) than respondents in the no-message comparison group (21%). The after visit summary and Healthy Pregnancy Program channels had more confidence in following recommendations (50%-54%) and showed more intention to eat fish (61%-62%) compared to lower-intensity channels (24%-31% and 19%-32%, respectively).
conclusionsMessages delivered by an often-trusted source (eg, healthcare provider) were more likely to increase confidence and intent. Despite the trend toward online health information, physical brochures still have large reach. Repetition of exposure may be important. Because all communication channels have advantages and drawbacks, using multiple delivery channels is appropriate in communication campaigns.
