Inclusive design in digital mental health: stakeholders with disabilities must be central to usability testing.
Article in Frontiers in digital health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Co-developing digital mental health tools is essential to ensure innovations are usable, engaging and accessible for the target populations. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, version 2.2, provide the minimum level of compliance for digital mental health tools and these should be further built on through usability testing. Developing digital tools without following inclusive design principles risks widening the digital divide, especially for individuals with disabilities. The Enhancing Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) Referrals 2 project funded by the National Institute of Health Research developed a digital referral tool for NHS CAMHS. The tool was co-developed with a Pan-Disability Digital Accessibility Group members of which all had lived experience of disabilities. The group advised on the accessibility of the tool through usability testing workshops. As a direct result of the feedback from the workshops, changes were made to the multi-factor authentication and the wording and navigation throughout the tool. This paper outlines the methods and processes followed to develop the group and facilitate the usability testing workshops to provide guidance for future digital mental health research teams. Engagement from advisory groups with lived experience can ensure accessibility is in-built from the start of development and not included as an afterthought.
