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

Objectives: To explore barriers for recruitment, attrition, and mHealth usage in a Swedish randomized controlled trial (RCT) including a mobile health (mHealth) intervention for children 5 to 12 years (n = 79) in obesity treatment. Methods: A retrospective process evaluation was conducted using Normalization Process Theory (NPT). To answer the study objectives, data on staff- and parental mHealth experience and usage, staff working time, recruitment, and reasons for attrition were evaluated in relation to the NPT constructs. Results: Recruitment process was complex and trial enrollment during the summer decreased staff- and participant-engagement. Attrition was influenced by technical issues, lack of motivation, and disliking the mHealth intervention. The major barrier for mHealth usage was technical problems. Staff struggled understanding core intervention components and found the intervention time consuming. Conclusion: Based on our findings we suggest future enablers for sufficient recruitment, retention, and increased mHealth usage of value for conducting pediatric obesity trials.
