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

Education in cancer prevention and control calls for training that spans disciplines to bring a broad range of skills together to develop future leaders who can speed research and delivery of effective prevention and control programs. We review the history of the Harvard Cancer Prevention Education Program as one example and summarize approaches to transdisciplinary training from the early 1990s onwards. From backgrounds in traditional public health disciplines (epidemiology, behavioral science, health policy, decision sciences, biostatistics, and environmental health) and clinical training, we encouraged common vocabulary, teamwork, and application of knowledge to the prevention of cancer with a population health perspective. While the evaluation of training programs is necessarily tied to the career trajectories of trainees, spanning decades, we present some early evidence of broad applications of training across research and delivery in government and not for profit sectors.
