Qualitative methodological pathway for developing the Instructive for the Obesity Management in the SUS, 2018-2020.

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
objectiveTo assess the methodological pathway for developing and validating Instructive for the Obesity Management in the Unified Health System (Sistema Único de Saúde - SUS), focusing on food and nutrition actions, based on the adaptation of the Dietary Guidelines for the Brazilian Population.
methodsThe development of the Instructive of Collective Approach for the Obesity Management in the SUS included an evaluation of the proposal summary during an in-person expert workshop, and the analysis of the first draft in an in-person validation workshop. In 2018 and 2019, a dynamic carousel was employed during the workshops to record the perceptions of experts from management, academy, and SUS health services. The materials produced during the workshops underwent exploratory content analysis by two authors independently, using theoretical frameworks and theories as predefined categories. Observed divergences were discussed until consensus was reached.
resultsThe first workshop, attended by 21 experts, was essential for the decision to develop a material specifically for collective approaches and for defining the theoretical frameworks and theories to be included in the Instructive. The second workshop, with 17 experts, contributed to resolving conceptual issues, addressing discussions and uncertainties, and consolidating of the care flow. The published version of the Instructive incorporated a problem-posing methodology transversally and the transtheoretical model as the core theoretical framework to enhance treatment effectiveness and adherence.
conclusionThe development and validation of the Instructive followed a scientific research trajectory, contributing to the creation of instructional materials derived from the Dietary Guidelines.
