Statistical analysis plan for cluster randomised trial to evaluate a community-level complementary food safety and hygiene and nutrition intervention in Mali: the MaaCiwara study.
Article in Trials, 2024. 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
backgroundDiarrheal disease is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in under-fives in many low- and middle-income countries. Changes in food safety, hygiene practices, and nutrition around the weaning period may reduce the risk of disease and improve infant development. The MaaCiwara study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a community-based educational intervention designed to improve food safety and hygiene behaviours, as well as child nutrition. This update article describes the statistical analysis plan for the MaaCiwara study in detail. METHODS AND
designThe MaaCiwara study is a parallel group, two-arm, superiority cluster randomised controlled trial with baseline measures, involving 120 clusters of rural and urban communities. These clusters are randomised to either receive the community-based behaviour change intervention or to the control group. The study participants will be mother-child pairs, with children aged between 6 and 36 months. Data collection involves a day of observation and interviews with each participating mother-child pair, conducted at baseline, 4 months, and 15 months post-intervention. The primary analysis aims to estimate the effectiveness of the intervention on changes to complementary food safety and preparation behaviours, food and water contamination, and diarrhoea. The primary outcomes will be analysed generalised linear mixed models, at individual level, accounting for clusters and rural/urban status to estimate the difference in outcomes between the intervention and control groups. Secondary outcomes include maternal autonomy, enteric infection, nutrition, child anthropometry, and development scores. In addition, structural equation analysis will be conducted to examine the causal relationships between the different outcomes.
