Mindfulness meditation for pulmonary hypertension program development: Acceptability and feasibility of technology-assisted complementary health intervention for symptom self-management.

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
backgroundAdults with pulmonary hypertension (PH) live with a high symptom burden, psychological distress, and poor quality of life. Mindfulness-based interventions delivered in person or virtually have shown clinical benefits for chronic conditions and PH. Pilot testing of the Mindfulness Meditation for Pulmonary Hypertension (MMPH), an 8-week, web-based, multimodal program, shows improvement in depression, symptoms, and quality of life.
objectivesTo evaluate the MMPH program's acceptability and feasibility quantitatively and qualitatively from MMPH participants.
methodsDescriptive statistics were used to report adherence to and completion of each component of MMPH (Zoom, video, and app use) among 15 participants who received the intervention in 2022-2023. Qualitative thematic analysis was conducted on their daily reflection journals, downloaded from the MMPH app.
resultsFifteen participants attended 28 out of 30 Zoom sessions (93%). Twelve of 15 (80%) participants accessed the video-viewing activity at least 50% of the time (3 of 6 videos). Eight out of 15 participants (53%) used the App during the intervention period, and 6 out of 15 participants (40%) used the App for >2 weeks. The content analysis reveals four most salient themes: Perceived Benefits of Meditation, Daily Life Practice and Activity, Awareness and Acceptance, and PH Symptom Improvement. The System Usability Scale for the MMPH program was 81.47 (±10.21), indicating moderate acceptability.
conclusionsAssessing the feasibility and acceptability of a complex behavioral health intervention, such as the MMPH program, is critical to ensuring consistent intervention fidelity. Comprehensive approaches are essential to guide necessary program modifications for future real-world implementation science testing.
