Implementation of recommended treatment for children in weight management programs: Lessons from the stay in treatment study sites.
Observational study in Preventive medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04364282 (War of Attrition), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
objectivesPediatric obesity remains a public health crisis in the United States, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. There are recommended guidelines for multidisciplinary care, but they remain challenging to implement, even in tertiary care weight management programs. The aim of this analysis is to describe the implementation of these recommendations among four pediatric weight management programs in the United States.
methodsThis report capitalizes on a convenience sample of programs participating in the Stay In Treatment (SIT) Study, a multicenter study to address attrition among pediatric weight management programs in tertiary care, academic institutions in diverse geographic locations. The programs were compared regarding structure, program offerings, and funding support.
resultsThe four programs were interdisciplinary, offered individual and group treatment options, and were family-based. A range of clinicians provided interventions with nutrition, physical activity, behavioral and psychosocial components. Anti-obesity pharmacotherapy and bariatric surgery were offered, when appropriate. None of the programs were self-sustaining; they required institutional and philanthropic support to provide recommended, comprehensive treatment.
conclusionsOngoing state and national advocacy are needed in the US to create consistent coverage for private and public insurance plans, so that high-risk children can have access to recommended treatment.
