Applications of Human-Centered Design to Food Is Medicine Interventions: The THRIVE Pilot Trial.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundFood Is Medicine interventions show promise for improving cardiovascular health outcomes, particularly for addressing disparities affecting Black and Hispanic populations. However, their development often lacks community co-creation. Human-centered design approaches can enhance the acceptability and feasibility of interventions through co-design processes. We aimed to co-design the THRIVE program (Adaptive Personalized Dietitian Coaching and Messaging With Produce Prescriptions to Improve Healthy Dietary Behaviors) among Black and Hispanic adults with hypertension living in healthy food priority areas in Maryland.
methodsUsing social cognitive theory and the human-centered design double-diamond framework, 3 iterative co-design sessions were conducted. The first session included an orientation/listening (virtual), followed by 2 in-person prototyping and process mapping sessions. Participants included community residents with hypertension, health care providers, local food system representatives, and community organization leaders. Data collection included detailed session notes, post-session surveys, prototypes, and documentation of visual outputs. Content analysis identified key implementation themes.
resultsThirty-six community stakeholders (29 female, 6 male, 17 English-speaking, 18 Spanish-speaking/bilingual) participated. Three primary themes emerged: (1) health care system integration, emphasizing personalized dietitian support with cultural competency; (2) food access and education, highlighting flexible produce prescription programs with practical nutrition education; and (3) community empowerment, emphasizing peer support networks. Process evaluation demonstrated high engagement, with 100% reporting valued contributions and 92% recommending similar approaches for future cardiovascular interventions.
conclusionsHuman-centered design effectively guided community engagement in the development of a contextually tailored Food Is Medicine intervention. Integrating human-centered design with implementation science creates more effective, equitable, and sustainable health interventions for addressing complex health challenges.
