Long-term results of a digital treatment tool as an add-on to pediatric obesity lifestyle treatment: a 3-year pragmatic clinical trial.
Trial report in International journal of obesity (2005), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThe integration of mobile health technology with physical visits shows promising one-year treatment outcomes, but long-term evidence is lacking.
objectivesTo assess three-year treatment outcomes for patients utilizing the digital treatment tool Evira in combination with physical visits, compared with standard obesity care.
methodsIn a pragmatic trial, children with obesity aged 4.0-17.9 years receiving digi-physical treatment with Evira (n = 107) were compared with a group receiving standard treatment (n = 321). Evira comprises a digitless body scale for home-weighing, a mobile application, and a web-based clinic interface, enabling easy family-clinic communication and continuous visual treatment feedback.
resultsAt the three-year follow-up, the adjusted average change in body mass index Z-score was -0.29 [95% confidence interval: -0.40, -0.18] units in the digi-physical treatment group vs. -0.12 [-0.21, -0.03] in the standard treatment group, p = 0.02, and 31.8% vs. 18.7% obtained obesity remission respectively, p = 0.0046.
conclusionOver a three-year period, the digi-physical treatment generated superior treatment effect and higher obesity remission rate than standard treatment.
