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

Youth participatory action research (YPAR), a method in which young people are engaged as research partners and change agents, offers a powerful paradigm to promote empowerment and liberation. YPAR interventions have been applied in diverse settings to address various issues. Identifying barriers and facilitators to implementing YPAR programs may increase the scope and impact of this study. Implementation and dissemination science (IDS) utilizes structured evaluation frameworks to assess determinants of intervention uptake, utilization, and sustainability. IDS has long been utilized in community psychology; yet applications to YPAR are limited. In the present study, we use the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) to evaluate a community-based YPAR intervention. Drawing on qualitative and quantitative data collected from multiple informants (e.g., participants, facilitators, and research team members) throughout the implementation period, we describe key barriers and facilitators related to programming. In addition, we present preliminary implementation outcomes (e.g., feasibility, acceptability) from our intervention. In describing these analyses, we center IDS as a key approach for rigorous evaluation of YPAR and similar community-based programs.
