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
With the increasing obesity rates, many studies on obesity prevention and management have been implemented. However, few studies focused on obesity in adulthood and different perceptions of obesity between life cycles. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the demand for customized obesity prevention and management (OPM) strategies across adult age groups. Focus group interviews were conducted to gather insights from three age groups: young adults (20-34 years), middle-aged adults (35-49 years), and seniors (50-64 years). A total of 17 participants took part in the study, with 5 participants in Group 1, 6 participants in Group 2, and 6 participants in Group 3. Thematic analysis and the use of NetMiner version 4.4.3 facilitated data categorization and scrutiny. The study employed qualitative methods to explore perceptions of obesity and preferences for personalized OPM strategies among participants. Diverse perspectives on obesity as a health threat were found among the age groups. While all stressed the importance of personalized OPM, preferences for strategies varied. Diet and exercise combination emerged as a common preference. This study highlighted the need for customized OPM approaches aligned with age-specific preferences.
