Evaluating the Effectiveness of an Intelligent mHealth Intervention for Child Unintentional Injury Prevention: Protocol for a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial.

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
Background: Unintentional injury is a leading cause of childhood morbidity and mortality worldwide. In China, real-world implementation of child injury prevention efforts remains inadequate due to constrained workforce capacity and a lack of operational frameworks. Objective: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of a mobile health (mHealth) intervention, the Intelligent Child Unintentional-Injury Reduction & Education (iCURE) project, embedded within China's National Basic Public Health Service Program. The intervention relies on a WeChat (Tencent) service account for caregivers and a web-based platform for health care providers to deliver standardized unintentional injury prevention strategies for young children. Key features of the program include interactive questions and answers, injury risk assessment with instant feedback, a tailored injury prevention knowledge disseminator, and regular reminders to caregivers. Methods: A double-blind, 12-month follow-up, cluster randomized controlled trial will be implemented in Changsha, Hunan Province, China. Caregivers of children aged ≤5 years will be recruited. Randomization will be conducted at the street or town level. The control group will receive routine safety education, while the intervention group will receive both routine safety education and the iCURE mHealth intervention focused on unintentional injury prevention and delivered via WeChat. Data will be collected at baseline and every 3 months during the study period. The primary outcome is 12-month incidence of unintentional injuries among children, including minor injuries and as reported by caregivers. Secondary outcomes include children's injury risk level and caregiver supervision behaviors assessed using a standard questionnaire. Data analysis will be conducted using generalized linear mixed models with a Poisson link function and generalized estimating equations to assess the effectiveness of the iCURE intervention, following intention-to-treat principles. Sensitivity analyses will be conducted with per-protocol principles and excluding participants with missing primary outcomes. Results: As of May 2025, a total of 6701 participants have been successfully enrolled and baseline data were collected for all participants. Of those enrolled, 87.2% (5842/6,701) completed the first follow-up assessment. Conclusions: This trial will examine the effectiveness of an intelligent mHealth intervention for child unintentional injury prevention building on China's National Basic Public Health Service Program. If successful, the iCURE intervention may provide a cost-effective strategy for child injury prevention in low- and middle-income countries.
