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

BackgroundThis study assessed the acceptability, among caregivers, of a mental health chatbot designed for adolescents living with HIV aged 10 to 19 years.MethodsFifteen caregivers interacted with the mental health chatbot. Pre-post assessments and semistructured interviews evaluated acceptability. Data were analyzed using a Framework Analysis approach.ResultsCaregivers aged 31 to 70 years found the chatbot acceptable on individual, interpersonal, and environmental levels. They appreciated the educational content and self-help tools, feeling the chatbot would benefit them personally. Caregivers also saw potential in the chatbot to improve communication with their children, particularly during critical periods like HIV diagnosis. Despite concerns about data costs or internet access, most viewed the chatbot as an accessible supplement to traditional mental health services.ConclusionThis study suggests that a mental health chatbot for Peruvian adolescents living with HIV was acceptable to their caregivers, potentially benefiting caregivers' mental health, enhancing caregiver-adolescent interactions, and fostering better communication.
