A Brief Video-Based Intervention to Improve Digital Health Literacy for Individuals With Bipolar Disorder: Intervention Development and Results of a Single-Arm Quantitative Pilot Study.

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
backgroundSmartphone apps can improve access to bipolar disorder (BD) care by delivering elements of effective psychological interventions, thereby promoting quality of life and reducing relapse risk and mood instability in BD. While many people with BD are interested in using publicly available mental health smartphone apps, without guidance, they risk selecting apps that are unsafe or ineffective.
objectiveThis study aimed to co-design a brief educational video on identifying appropriate mental health apps and to evaluate the acceptability and impact of this video among individuals with BD.
methodsIndividuals with lived experience of BD, including 2 peer researchers and members of 2 advisory groups (n=4 and n=7), were consulted to develop a video with information on selecting safe, effective, and engaging mental health apps for BD. Video acceptability and impact on self-reported digital health literacy (including both general eHealth literacy and more specific mobile health literacy) were evaluated via a web-based survey, including both a validated measure and complementary items developed by the research team.
resultsIn total, 42 individuals with BD completed the evaluation survey (n=29, 69% women, mean age 38.6, SD 12.0 years). Digital health literacy, measured using the self-report eHealth Literacy Scale, significantly improved after viewing the video (pre: mean 32.40, SD 4.87 and post: mean 33.57, SD 4.67; t
conclusionsThis study found preliminary evidence that an educational video can help people with BD improve their ability to identify, apply, and evaluate the quality of digital health resources. The video and a supplementary web-based educational module are freely available for implementation in health care settings and have the potential to be a cost-effective and accessible resource for clinicians to support patients with BD to navigate the public app marketplace in support of their self-management goals.
