Notes from the review of this manuscript

This manuscript received an indeterminate rating because HomVEE reviewers could not determine whether the intervention and comparison groups were equivalent on race or ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or preintervention measures of the outcomes in the analyzed sample at baseline. Manuscripts receive a rating of indeterminate whenever HomVEE reviewers lack sufficient information on one or more features of the study design that are required for the study to receive a rating of moderate or high. A rating of indeterminate is not a statement about the quality of the research or the research design.
