Effectiveness of an online, dyadic, culturally adapted physical activity intervention for south Asian mothers and daughters (SAATH): a randomised controlled trial.

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.

Abstract
Background: South Asian females in the United States experience elevated cardiometabolic risk and have lower levels of moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) than other race and ethnic groups. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a dyadic, culturally adapted behavioral intervention to increase MVPA among US South Asian mothers and adolescent daughters. Methods: Type-1 hybrid, phase II randomized controlled trial with data collection from August 1, 2020 to March 26, 2024. Participants were 126 South Asian mother-daughter dyads from the Chicago, Illinois, metropolitan area. South Asian women not meeting MVPA recommendations at baseline and who had a daughter aged 11-16 years were eligible. Mother-daughter dyads were randomized to either an education control of written health education materials ( Findings: Among 126 randomized dyads, mean (SD) age was 42.8 (5.6) years for mothers and 13.5 (1.7) years for daughters. Among mothers, 94% were born outside the US. Mean difference in MVPA change in the intervention vs control group were -1.9 minutes/day (95% CI, -6.4 to 2.5 min/day) for mothers and -0.9 minutes/day for MVPA (95% CI, -7.3 to 5.5) for daughters. Intervention participation was not associated with greater improvements in secondary outcomes. Interpretation: A dyadic, culturally adapted PA intervention was not more effective than written health education materials for improving MVPA among South Asian mothers and adolescent daughters. Effective PA promotion across the lifecourse for this elevated-risk population requires further investigation.
