Sowing the Seeds of Health: Training of Community Health Advisors to Promote Breast and Cervical Cancer Screening among Latina Immigrants in Alabama.
Article in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Latinas in the U.S. are disproportionately affected by breast and cervical cancer. This project sought to develop and evaluate a culturally relevant training for Community Health Advisors (CHA) to promote breast and cervical cancer screening among Latina immigrants in Alabama. The Empowerment Model guided training development and implementation supported by a formative evaluation and a Community Advisory Committee. The 16-hour CHA training included two intertwined components: knowledge and skills.Fifty-six (56) Latinas participated in the CHA training in six Alabama counties. The training increased the CHAs' (1) knowledge of cancer screening and other health topics and (2) their perceived confidence to communicate with women in their communities about cancer screening and to motivate them to attain cancer screenings. This work demonstrates the application of a transformative philosophical framework to promote capacity-building among CHAs toward the development and implementation of strategies to promote breast and cervical cancer screening among Latina immigrants.
