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

objectiveTo determine the feasibility of an online grocery pilot aimed at supporting healthy food purchases for caregivers of individuals with low income.

methodsA pretest-posttest pilot study was conducted among 59 primary household food shopper caregivers living ≤ 130% of the poverty line. The 8-week randomized pilot had 4 groups: (1) free delivery-only, (2) trust-targeting SMS, (3) matching credit for online healthy purchases, and (4) grocery list recommendations. The groups received the program concomitantly from October to December, 2022. Feasibility was assessed through the setup of an online grocery account and receipt of the intervention materials via text. Acceptability was assessed via postintervention interviews and participants' ratings of the intervention.

resultsFeasibility was medium-high: 47% created an online grocery account, 61% watched the program tutorial. Acceptability was high: 90% found the tutorial helpful, all received text messages, 82% deemed them useful. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: The promising feasibility and acceptability suggest a potential for a fully powered trial behavioral intervention to support online healthy food shopping.
