Parent Website Engagement and Health Equity Implications in a Child Care-Based Wellness Intervention.
Trial report in Journal of nutrition education and behavior, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
objectiveTo evaluate demographic differences in parent website engagement in a child care-based wellness intervention.
designParent-reported demographic characteristics and observed website engagement were averaged by child care centers participating in the web-based intervention arm of a cluster randomized controlled trial of wellness interventions. SETTING AND
participantsParents of preschoolers in 17 Maryland child care centers.
main outcome measuresWebsite engagement: (1) webpage views, (2) average time on webpage, and (3) intervention activity completion.
interventionParents received access to a website containing content on wellness-promoting topics (eg, parenting, nutrition, physical activity) and their child care center's activities. ANALYSIS: Cross-sectional differences in website engagement by demographic characteristics were assessed using ANOVA.
resultsCenters with a high proportion of parents who identified as other than non-Hispanic White and had less than a bachelor's degree had significantly fewer webpage views, and completed significantly fewer intervention activities compared with centers with parents who were predominantly non-Hispanic White and had more than a bachelor's degree. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: Demographic differences in parents' child care center website engagement represent disparities that could contribute to health inequities in parents' access to wellness-promoting material. Future efforts could identify factors that eliminate demographic disparities in parent engagement in web-based interventions.
