Lessons Learned from Community Partners: Strengthening a Mini-grants Process to Advance Health Equity.
Article in Progress in community health partnerships : research, education, and action, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe Be ActiveWV Grant Program aims to increase equitable access to physical activity throughout the state of West Virginia using mini-grants awarded to community-based organizations. Although health equity is a priority in this program, and questions have been added to the application to convey this focus, consideration for health equity is noticeably absent in mini-grant applications and evaluation reports. Thus, more research is needed to understand how to bolster the health equity initiatives in the Be ActiveWV Grant Program.
objectivesThe purpose of this article is to overview lessons learned from community partners and to recommend specific strategies to enhance academic-community partnerships and the mini-grant process in service of health equity.
methodsOnline surveys and semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 former mini-grant applicants. The lessons learned presented in this article are a reflection of process notes, data analysis notes, thematic analysis, and conversations among WVU researchers. LESSONS LEARNED: The five lessons learned include 1) build capacity early, 2) facilitate connections, 3) collaborate with communities to develop and disseminate project-related resources, 4) support project promotion, and 5) interact with intention. Rationale is provided for each of the lessons presented, as well as suggestions for how researchers and practitioners might translate these lessons into actionable items.
