Strategies and Opportunities to STOP Colon Cancer in Priority Populations: design of a cluster-randomized pragmatic trial.
Trial report in Contemporary clinical trials, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01742065 (Strategies and Opportunities to Stop Colon Cancer in Priority Populations), which is not on this map. Cited by 36 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.

Abstract
backgroundColorectal cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. The Strategies and Opportunities to Stop Colorectal Cancer (STOP CRC) in Priority Populations study is a pragmatic trial and a collaboration between two research institutions and a network of more than 200 safety net clinics. The study will assess the effectiveness of a system-based intervention designed to improve the rates of colorectal-cancer screening using fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) in federally qualified health centers in Oregon and Northern California. MATERIAL AND
methodsSTOP CRC is a cluster-randomized comparative-effectiveness pragmatic trial enrolling 26 clinics. Clinics will be randomized to one of two arms. Clinics in the intervention arm (1) will use an automated, data-driven, electronic health record-embedded program to identify patients due for colorectal screening and mail FIT kits (with pictographic instructions) to them; (2) will conduct an improvement process (e.g. Plan-Do-Study-Act) to enhance the adoption, reach, and effectiveness of the program. Clinics in the control arm will provide opportunistic colorectal-cancer screening to patients at clinic visits. The primary outcomes are: proportion of age- and screening-eligible patients completing a FIT within 12months; and cost, cost-effectiveness, and return on investment of the intervention.
conclusionsThis large-scale pragmatic trial will leverage electronic health record information and existing clinic staff to enroll a broad range of patients, including many with historically low colorectal-cancer screening rates. If successful, the program will provide a model for a cost-effective and scalable method to raise colorectal-cancer screening rates.
