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

Pregnancy and the postnatal period are opportune times to support parental health and encourage future child health and wellbeing. txtpēpi is an individually tailored text message programme for parents and families providing information and support during pregnancy and the postnatal period. txtpēpi was developed for a region of Aotearoa New Zealand, with a high proportion of Māori (the Indigenous population) and people living rurally or in areas of high deprivation. The paper presents a mixed-methods evaluation of txtpēpi using the RE-AIM Framework, involving interviews with 40 end-users and nine stakeholders, and analysis of system-recorded end-user data. The results suggest that txtpēpi achieved a high degree of reach, impact, implementation and adoption. Ongoing maintenance of txtpēpi was endorsed with suggested areas of improvement. Programme uptake and engagement from Māori suggest that this type of intervention provides a promising and acceptable tool to support improvement in equity of child health outcomes.
