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

Obesity is a risk factor for stroke, and survivors of stroke have a high rate of obesity and greater burden of obesity-related chronic conditions (e.g., heart disease, hypertension, re-occurring stroke) compared to the general population. Despite the health disparity, there is a lack of evidence-based weight-loss interventions tailored to individuals post stroke, as most health promotion programs exclude this population. Our team's work modifying and examining the efficacy of a modified version of the Diabetes Prevention Program Group Lifestyle Balance for people post stroke (GLB-CVA) is promising with results from an in-person randomized controlled trial (RCT) showing significant weight-loss (10.1 ± 16.8 lbs. [4.88 %]) and improvements in waist circumference, diastolic blood pressure, pain, social participation, eating practices, and health habits at 12-months post intervention. To expand the reach and accessibility of the GLB-CVA intervention, we will complete a RCT to assess the efficacy of telehealth delivery by enrolling 94 participants post stroke over a 3-year period. Results may provide an evidence-based, scalable telehealth weight-loss program designed for people post stroke that clinicians and community workers can use to increase accessibility to underserved groups.
