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

objectivesThis review was conducted to support knowledge translation (KT) and implementation of interventions to increase participation in organized cancer screening programs in the province of Ontario, Canada.

methodsA rigorously designed literature search yielded over 900 references which were then subjected to exclusion criteria. The remainder was organized according to type of intervention, based on the categories applied in two authoritative systematic reviews and an analysis of the level of evidence. Emerging themes in the literature were then identified to provide a bridge between high-level evidence and on-the-ground practice.

resultsWe identify three promising types of KT interventions: community-based health education; lay or peer health education; and targeted or tailored interventions. Each is summarized with illustrative examples and a summary of key themes and considerations.

conclusionsThe authors conclude with a summary the types and a decision tool designed to help KT and implementation teams select interventions which could be adapted to their own context.
