Usability and Acceptability Evaluation of a Digital Health Physical Activity Intervention among Older Family Caregivers of Patients with Heart Failure.

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
Digital health physical activity (PA) programs have shown promise for improving the health and wellness of family caregivers (FCGs). However, their use among older adult caregivers remains underexplored. To address this gap, we developed TPA4You, a tailored digital health PA program that integrates videoconferencing with a health coach, a fitness tracker, and motivational messaging. The program is designed to support older caregivers, a population whose health and self-care needs are underserved by digital health interventions.This study evaluated the usability and acceptability of TPA4You among older FCGs of patients with heart failure.An iterative design approach guided by the Rapid Iterative Testing and Evaluation methodology was employed. Usability and acceptability were assessed through a two-phase, 1-week trial. Participant feedback from each phase informed iterative refinements to the TPA4You design.Eleven participants were enrolled (Phase 1,
