Inadequate Cancer Screening: Lack of Provider Continuity is a Greater Obstacle than Medical Mistrust.
Observational study in Journal of health care for the poor and underserved, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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.
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
backgroundRacial minorities and low-income individuals are generally less likely to have adequate cancer screening than Whites or higher-income individuals. PURPOSE: To examine the roles of medical mistrust and lack of provider continuity in cancer screening in a low-income minority population.
methodsA total of 144 urban federally qualified health center patients completed a cross-sectional survey that included the Group Based Medical Mistrust Scale and questions on provider continuity and cancer-screening-history.
resultsBreast cancer screening was associated with continuity of care but not mistrust (respectively p = .002, p > .05); colon cancer screening was not significantly associated with either factor (p > .05).
conclusionsFindings suggest that among low-income minority adults continuity of care is more strongly associated with screening than medical mistrust. Shifting focus from medical mistrust-a patient-level issue-to establishing health care homes-a system-level issue-may be a more effective strategy for reducing racial and socioeconomic disparities in cancer screening.
