A Randomized Controlled Trial to Examine the Relationship Between Peer Mentoring for Physical Activity and Cardiometabolic Health.
Trial report in Global heart, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Studies examining the effect of peer mentoring on physical activity levels have been conducted in mostly elderly and young populations, and the results have been inconsistent. This study examined the impact of one-on-one peer mentoring on physical activity and cardiometabolic parameters in urban adults. Methods: The study participants were 353 overweight or obese adults residing in Abuja, Nigeria. They were randomized into two groups, peer-mentored (n = 128) and a control (n = 225) group. All the participants received nutritional counseling and were invited to attend instructor-led physical activity sessions each week for six months. Differences in the frequency, duration, and intensity of physical activity and cardiometabolic parameters, including body fat, muscle mass and lipids, were evaluated within and between the groups with Results: At the end of the study period, the average time spent on physical activity increased significantly by 14% ( Conclusions: In these overweight or obese adults, we observed that peer mentoring was positively associated with increased physical activity. Peer mentoring also holds great promise for improving cardiometabolic health and promoting a healthy lifestyle in adults.
