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

Background: Few prior interventions for obesity have focused on reward-related eating. Researchers developed a mobile health mindfulness-based intervention, Eat Right Now (ERN), for improving reward related eating; ERN has not yet been feasibility tested as a weight loss intervention. Objective: To obtain 6-month pilot and feasibility data in patients using the ERN intervention alone or with asynchronous coaching. Methods: A 6-month, two-arm pilot and feasibility randomized trial was conducted involving 20 adults with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m Results: Among the 20 randomized participants, 17 (85%) started the intervention and remained enrolled in six months. Among these, 82% (14/17) had weight data captured by a Wi-Fi scale and 70.5% (12/17) completed follow-up questionnaires at the 6-month time point. The coached ERN participants had 4.3% weight loss (95% confidence interval (CI): 2.3%, 6.3%) and uncoached participants had 3.6% weight loss (95% CI: 1.2%, 5.9%). Participants in both approaches reported reductions in reward-related eating. Conclusions: This pilot randomized trial of ERN demonstrates the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention for the majority of both the coached and uncoached groups. Further efforts are needed to ensure high retention and data capture in future studies.
