Surveillance of colorectal cancer screening in new Mexico hispanics and non-Hispanic whites.
Article in Journal of community health, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
The incidence of colorectal cancer (CRC) among Hispanics in the state of New Mexico has increased in the past decade while that among whites has declined significantly. Using the 2006 New Mexico Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) survey, we compared CRC screening among Hispanics and whites by gender to examine the influence of demographic, socioeconomic, preventive health, and clinical measures on the utilization of CRC screening. Although we found no ethnic differences in the prevalence of current breast, cervical and cancer screening, Hispanics were less likely to be current with CRC screening than whites. These differences were observed across a range of socioeconomic and other explanatory measures and in both genders. Hispanics also had a higher prevalence of CRC-related risk factors than whites, including inactivity, obesity, and diabetes, and ranked lower for most socioeconomic measures. Adjusting for healthcare coverage, education, and income in logistic regression models eliminated the Hispanic-white differences in CRC screening among men, and substantially reduced but did not eliminate screening differences among women. Innovative methods are needed to reach Hispanics to raise awareness of and participation in CRC screening. Because many CRC risk factors are potentially modifiable, appropriate cultural and linguistic interventions tailored to specific Hispanic subgroups and aimed at promoting CRC screening and reducing CRC risk factors may decrease ethnic disparities in CRC incidence.
