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.

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

purposeResults from the pilot Group-basEd Telehealth behavioral Weight Loss (GET-WEL) Program (NCT04855552) showed that fewer Black breast cancer survivors (BCS) enrolled than White BCS. Black participants also lost less weight than White participants. Little is known about mitigating factors or how best to implement such programs equitably. In this study, we explored facilitators and barriers in Black and White BCS who did or did not participate in GET-WEL.

methodsBCS who are overweight or obese (body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m

resultsOf the 24 interviewees, 9 (8 White, 1 Black) were GET-WEL participants, and 15 (8 White, 6 Black, 1 Asian) were non-participants. There were no thematic differences between Black and White BCS. Most non-participants lacked awareness that the Program was recruiting. Program accountability, session flexibility, and pre-existing exercise routines emerged as facilitators while inability to identify enjoyable physical activities, difficulty accessing healthy foods, and competing work/life priorities emerged as barriers.

conclusionOur results suggest that enhancing Program awareness and outreach may increase enrollment in minoritized BCS. Resources providing healthy foods and support to ease competing work/life priorities may help BCS maintain healthy lifestyles during and after GET-WEL. These results may help inform future large-scale GET-WEL implementation.
