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

Introduction: Early-life health behaviors are shaped within the family environment, influencing long-term metabolic and developmental outcomes. Mobile health (mHealth) applications are widely available but most lack clinical integration, behavioral theory grounding, and personalized interactivity. This study describes the development and feasibility testing of the Methods: Results: UEQ-KPI perspicuity decreased significantly among parents and HCPs from prototype to MVP. On UEQ, parents rated attractiveness, perspicuity, and stimulation above average, while efficiency, dependability, and novelty were lower. HCPs reported higher UEQ scores overall, with excellent ratings for attractiveness, perspicuity, and novelty. On uMARS, overall app quality was rated positive by both groups. Clinical usability was rated positively by HCPs on MAUQ. Content validity was acceptable (parents: ≥0.92 across domains except ambiguity at 0.80; HCPs: ≥0.83). Qualitative findings indicated that Conclusion:
