Article in Journal of community health, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02392143 (Promoting CRC Screening in a Hard-To-Reach, Low-Income Minority Population), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 papers.

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.

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.

Abstract

unlabelledDespite an increase in colorectal cancer screening uptake, a substantial minority of individuals over 50 years of age remains unscreened. In the context of an RCT evaluating three educational interventions to increase CRC screening uptake, we examined the relationship of baseline colonoscopy knowledge and both intention to receive a colonoscopy and documented receipt of colonoscopy. Colonoscopy knowledge score, generally high, was positively associated with intention to receive colonoscopy but not with receipt of colonoscopy within 1 year post-randomization. Knowledge score was, however, positively associated with certain perceived barriers to colonoscopy: embarrassment and having to take a powerful laxative.

conclusionKnowledge is not sufficient to trigger colonoscopy uptake. If CRC screening promotion campaigns fail to acknowledge and address patients' emotional barriers to colonoscopy, CRC screening rates will not improve. CLINICAL TRIALS: gov: Identifier: NCT02392143.
