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

objectivesThe present study aimed to assess the associations between the youth's cancer preventive behaviors (CPB) (i.e., healthy dietary intake and physical activity), parent stress, parent socio-demographic characteristics (i.e., education, household income, and marital status), and neighborhood influences measured by the Area Deprivation Index (ADI) in a sample of Hispanic families who have youth with unhealthy weight. Additionally, we examined whether parent stress mediated the relationship between ADI and youth CPB.

methodsBaseline data from 280 Hispanic youth (M

resultsOur findings indicated significant associations between ADI and youth CPB (b = -0.17, p = .019), and parent stress (b = 0.23, p = .001). However, parent stress did not mediate the relationship between youth ADI and CPB.

conclusionYouth living in disadvantaged neighborhoods report less engagement in cancer preventive behaviors including poorer food intake quality and less physical activity, which may increase their risk of cancer. Future research should evaluate neighborhood resources to encourage physical activity and healthy eating.
