Prostate cancer knowledge in Irish men.
Article in Journal of cancer education : the official journal of the American Association for Cancer Education, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Men require prostate cancer (Pca) knowledge to practice health-seeking behaviours. Nine hundred seventy-nine men participated in a Pca screening programme comprising IPSS, bother score and health belief questionnaire. Men with private insurance had greater knowledge. Forty-nine percent (481) assessed their health status as average. Seventy-five percent (735) visited the GP at least once per year. The majority (576) felt well informed about health matters. Fifty-five percent (542) knew the prostate location but only 319 (33%) could identify it on a diagram. Forty-one percent (401) could not name a symptom. Few knew risk factors but 98% would attend a Pca screening clinic and sought more information. Men lack knowledge to pursue healthier behaviours and should be targeted possibly through a men's health initiative.
