Action for better brain health among people living with HIV: protocol for a randomized controlled trial.
Article in BMC infectious diseases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04345484 (Action for Positive Brain Health Now), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 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.

Abstract
backgroundLifestyle changes can protect or improve brain health in older adults. However, sustained lifestyle change is difficult for everyone and may be more difficult for those with executive dysfunction, including some people living with HIV. Thus, the key question is how we can improve adherence to the most promising interventions among people living with HIV experiencing cognitive difficulties. Goal management training is a cognitive rehabilitation program that targets executive dysfunction by teaching goal-directed behaviour and self-management. It is a promising means to improve adherence to lifestyle interventions.
objectiveTo estimate the extent to which goal management training before a healthy lifestyle program is associated with greater adherence to health recommendations, achievement of health-related goals, and better brain health and health outcomes compared to the healthy lifestyle program alone among people living with HIV.
methodsBrain Health Now cohort participants with cognitive difficulties or are not aging successfully are eligible. All participants will be given health resources, a health coach, a goal-setting digital application, and access to an online goal-setting workshop. The intervention group will participate in nine 2-h goal management training sessions and then will enter the healthy lifestyle program. Control participants will enter the healthy lifestyle program directly. A total sample of 100 participants will participate for 12 months. The main outcome is adherence to the healthy lifestyle program, defined as the number of weeks where physical activity adherence targets were met (150 min per week, measured with an activity monitor). Weekly social activities will be captured via self-report with confidential photo validation. We will send weekly health state reports to the participants. Downstream outcomes include cognitive ability, health-related quality of life, mobility, vascular risk profile, and social network size. We will analyze the data using a linear regression model. DISCUSSION: This project is the first to test whether goal management training can augment adherence to health recommendations among individuals with cognitive difficulties. If successful, behavioural interventions such as goal management training could be implemented as an adjunct to lifestyle interventions in other clinical populations.
