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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo test the feasibility and acceptability of We See You, Sis, a therapeutically grounded virtual sister circle intervention for Black women with depression symptoms.

designA two-group quasi-experimental design.

settingVirtual on the Zoom version 5.13 platform.

participantsBlack women who were at least 40 years of age, with current depression symptoms, who had reliable access to Zoom (N = 30).

methodWe See You, Sis is a virtual sister circle intervention that is therapeutically grounded in the core processes of Pulling Out of Fire, a culturally adapted version of acceptance and commitment therapy. Groups 1 and 2 received the 6-week intervention during Weeks 1 through 6 and 7 through 12, respectively. The main outcomes were feasibility (recruitment, retention, and completion) and acceptability. The theoretical framework of acceptability informed the focus group guide used to assess acceptability. We used thematic analysis to code the qualitative data and to identify salient themes across participants' narratives.

resultsRecruitment (70%), retention (83.3%), and completion (82%) rates demonstrated that the intervention was feasible. Participants perceived the intervention to be acceptable, especially because it fit with their personal and collective values. We generated two overarching themes: Becoming More Whole and Having a Trusted Space to Address Depression Symptoms and Related Experiences, which represented the interconnected processes of personal growth and collective healing that occurred throughout the intervention.

conclusionThe findings provide evidence to support the delivery of peer-delivered mental health interventions for middle-age and older Black women.
