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
We pilot tested a multiple health behavior change (MHBC) intervention to improve breastfeeding rates, healthy eating/active living, and depression prevention among pregnant and parenting adolescent mothers. We also assessed utility of the MHBC mHealth approach by examining health behavior coaction and intervention acceptability. We used a longitudinal randomized controlled trial to compare the tablet-delivered momHealth to a control condition (usual care). Delivered between 32 weeks of pregnancy and one month postpartum, momHealth included nine multi-media education modules, simultaneous daily educational text messaging, and weekly videoconferences for individual and group support. Main outcomes included "any" and "exclusive" breastfeeding initiation and continuation for 5 weeks and 3 months postpartum; number of fruit and vegetable servings; minutes of moderate/vigorous physical activity per day; and depressive symptoms. Sixty-two adolescents aged 16-19 having their first baby were randomized. Compared to Control, more momHealth participants were still breastfeeding at 5 weeks (chi-square = 3.91, df = 1, P = .048). Mothers who breastfed for 3 months were more likely to eat adequate daily fruits/vegetables. Participants positively rated the intervention. momHealth positively affected early breastfeeding continuation and trended toward positive outcomes in healthy living and depressive symptoms. A fully powered trial is planned to test the intervention more effectively.
