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

backgroundThe Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Community Controlled Health Sector are well placed to address health equity concerns, including the disproportionate rates of obesity in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adolescents. Building on previous research, this study piloted a co-designed empowerment-focussed obesity prevention programme with rural Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adolescents.

methodsUsing mixed-methods, this research assessed nutrition and weight-related outcomes and explored programme acceptability and potential benefits through qualitative yarning. Seventeen adolescents participated.

resultsThere were no significant changes in quantitative weight-related and nutrition behaviour outcomes. However, qualitative insights suggest the programme was highly valued and viewed as a success. Community believed they could see observable changes in adolescent food literacy, empowerment and cooking confidence. Improvements for future delivery of the programme were identified by end-users. DISCUSSION: This study is strengthened by implementing critical success factors for obesity prevention programmes and demonstrating ethical research practice with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

conclusionFuture research opportunities continue to be actively explored by local community-controlled partners.
