Back to school: a qualitative study evaluating a community-informed COVID-19 risk communication intervention for rural elementary school children and their families.

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
backgroundReOpening Schools Safely and Educating Youth (ROSSEY) was a cluster randomized controlled trial of a risk communication intervention for COVID-19 prevention to promote safe return to school among students in a rural, agricultural community. PURPOSE: This qualitative study evaluated the implementation of a risk communication intervention and a school district's COVID-19 testing program through parent focus groups and interviews with school staff and students.
methodsParents (n = 37), students (n = 19), and school staff (n = 14) from seven schools that received the intervention shared their experience via focus groups and interviews informed by the RE-AIM framework. Deductive and inductive coding was conducted by four data analysts. Themes were validated with community members.
resultsParent focus groups, student and staff interviews provided insight into the ROSSEY study implementation. We identified five main themes: (i) social and financial drivers of participation; (ii) personal beliefs and unique challenges to research participation; (iii) intervention reinforced knowledge and shifted behavior; (iv) the appeal of comic books and videos supported adoption; and (v) multimodal communication and partnerships enhanced implementation.
conclusionsThe risk communication intervention was deemed culturally appropriate, reinforced previous knowledge, and encouraged adoption of preventive behaviors. The partnership with the school district and collaboration with the district's COVID-19 testing program ensured success of recruitment, study implementation, and adoption of preventive behaviors.
