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
introductionRefugees experience significant health needs and well-being inequities. Smoking tobacco, nutrition disorders, alcohol use and physical inactivity are potential contributors to developing non-communicable diseases and mental health conditions. This study aims to explore refugees' health promotion needs in a regional town in New South Wales (NSW), Australia, suggest appropriate health promotion methods, and co-design a health promotion intervention. Privileging refugees' voices and experiences is central to co-designing appropriate health promotion interventions.
methodsWe will employ a two-phase participatory qualitative co-design method. As there is a lack of knowledge about refugees' health needs, a participatory research design has the potential to explore the topics holistically. The social-ecological model and the behaviour change wheel model will guide this study. During Phase 1, a semistructured interview guide will be used for in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with refugees. A deductive reflexive thematic analysis will be applied to analyse data using NVivo. In Phase 2, two workshops will be conducted with refugees and health professionals. A reflexive thematic analysis will be performed to identify the top health promotion strategies. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval was obtained from the Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) of the North Coast NSW Local Health District (HREA370 2023/ETH00444). The Human Research Ethics Committee approved a minimisation of duplication at a regional university in Australia (SCU HREC 2024/106). Study findings will be disseminated through embedding chapters in the PhD thesis, publishing high-quality papers and presenting at conferences, lay reports, newsletters and media.
