1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveThis study examined whether (1) baseline weight-related information avoidance was associated with weight self-monitoring during a sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) reduction intervention, iSIPsmarter, and (2) baseline SSB-related information avoidance was associated with SSB self-monitoring.

methodsWe analyzed secondary outcomes from the iSIPsmarter behavioral intervention. Generalized linear models examined whether baseline SSB and weight-related information avoidance predicted SSB and weight diary days tracked.

resultsAmong participants (n = 127), SSB-related information avoidance was positively associated with the proportion of SSB diary days recorded (β = 6.4, SE = 2.6, P = 0.01). Weight-related information avoidance was negatively associated with the proportion of weight diary days recorded (β = -6.0, SE = 2.0, P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: We found that SSB-related information avoidance was associated with greater self-monitoring frequency, whereas weight-related avoidance predicted lower engagement. These data suggest that screening for information avoidance at baseline can help identify individuals who may require additional support to overcome psychological barriers to self-monitoring.
