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.

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
backgroundChildhood and adolescent obesity continue to plague our nation. Health interventions must begin early. When students introduce more nutritious foods into their diets like fruits and vegetables, their health is positively impacted. This study reports on improvements in willingness to try new fruits and vegetables and correlated health behaviors, like physical activity, after participation in a school-based wellness program, The Health and Wellness Academy (HWA). MATERIALS AND
methodsSeventy-two students participated in HWA, with a mean age of 10.43 ± 2.18 years. 58.3% were female, 75% were Hispanic, and the remaining 25% were Black. Each HWA session involved tailored nutrition and physical activity interventions. Pre- and post-program surveys were utilized to obtain nutrition data.
resultsResults indicated that the willingness to try new fruits and new vegetables increased along with the length of time in HWA. The mixed linear model regression results revealed significant time effects on both willingness to try new fruits (
conclusionsHaving a consistent, sustained intervention with a dedicated nutrition team allows youth to be exposed to a variety of nutrition options. Our findings indicate the HWA's tailored model allows for youth to find nutrition that is meaningful and relevant, thus willing to try new nutritious foods.
