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
Background: There is a gap in mental health care among Latino/x and Spanish-speaking communities, and the care that is available is often difficult to access, lacks cultural nuance, and results in low engagement and satisfaction. Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the reach, adoption, and acceptability of digital Spanish-language psychosocial and emotional wellness services among Latino/x adults offered by the digital health company Sanarai. Methods: Data included in this study were collected between August 2020 and September 2024 by Sanarai as part of its ongoing services. Quantitative data sources included individual customers' appointment data, individual session payment data, and customer satisfaction data. Qualitative data were obtained from transcribed notes of telephone or video-based user interviews conducted by Sanarai staff between August 2020 and May 2024. Results: Between August 2020 and September 2024, Sanarai served 6163 users (n=3662, 59.42% women participants) across all 50 US states, with the highest concentration of participants in Texas and California. Results showed 94% (n=5793) of users scheduled a first appointment within 1 week, with 43% (n=2650) doing so within 1 day. Over 62.60% (n=3858) of participants engaged in two or more sessions, attending an average of 8.94 (SD 13) sessions over 110 days (SD 169). The platform delivered a total of 36,858 appointments, including individual and couples sessions. Only 22.47% (n=1385) of users responded to a customer satisfaction survey for a total of 2287 distinct responses; among this subgroup, session satisfaction was high with an average satisfaction rating of 4.88 out of 5.0 (SD 0.49) and a Net Promoter Score of +85. Nearly all responses (n=2174, 95.06%) expressed intent to schedule another session, but these results should be interpreted with caution, given the low response rate. Qualitative interviews with 30 users (n=21, 70% women) revealed a diverse user base. Many users reported prior mental health service experiences, while one-third were new to care. Participants cited cost, cultural fit, language access, and convenience as key reasons for choosing Sanarai over local services. Users highlighted the platform's affordability, scheduling flexibility, and provider professionalism as central to their positive experiences. Conclusions: These findings underscore the value of culturally responsive, accessible online mental health care for Spanish-speaking communities.
