Recruiting research participants at community education sites.
Article in Journal of cancer education : the official journal of the American Association for Cancer Education, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundMinority groups are underrepresented in research, making it difficult to apply medical advances with confidence. In this study, we explored whether community-based cancer education sites and educators serving the African American community could be used to recruit minority participants to research.
methodsWe invited Individuals at community education sites to provide buccal scrapings, saliva samples, psychometric data, and personal information anonymously.
resultsCulturally aligned community sites (100%) collaborated in the research recruitment, as did 83% of the individuals at those sites.
conclusionCommunity-based education sites offer exceptional promise for teaching about research benefits and recruiting members of minority groups to research studies.
