Development of a Digital Parent Intervention to Promote Healthy Eating and Activity in Preschoolers: The eHEROs Study.
Article in Journal of nutrition education and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07224412 (Utilizing Digital Health Approaches to Promote Early Childhood Healthy Eating and Activity Behaviors), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
objectiveTo describe the development and testing of an electronic HEalthy EnviROnments study mobile application (app) with parents of preschoolers using a user-centered design approach.
designAn iterative, multiphase approach comprising formative research, intervention mapping, app development and testing, and pilot testing.

main outcome measuresFormative research provided insights into parents' use of digital devices and potential intervention features. The findings will inform intervention mapping and wireframe (app schematic) testing to examine the app's functionality, usability, and user experience. A pilot study (n = 30) will be conducted to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of the electronic HEalthy EnviROnments study mobile app, along with theoretical mediators, as well as behavioral and implementation outcomes. ANALYSIS: The results will be interpreted iteratively to inform subsequent study phases. Quantitative and qualitative analyses will be used to assess the feasibility of a digital parent intervention to enhance parents' feeding and activity parenting practices and mindful parenting, with the long-term goal of improving preschoolers' eating and activity behaviors in their home environment.
