Determinants of adherence to recommendations for cancer prevention among Lynch Syndrome mutation carriers: A qualitative exploration.
Article in PloS one, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
backgroundLynch Syndrome (LS) mutation carriers are at high risk for various cancer types, particularly colorectal cancer. Adherence to lifestyle and body weight recommendations for cancer prevention may lower this risk. To promote adherence to these recommendations, knowledge on determinants of adherence in LS mutation carriers is needed. Therefore, this study aimed to identify determinants of adherence to lifestyle recommendations for cancer prevention in LS mutation carriers.
methodsFive focus groups were conducted with DNA confirmed LS mutation carriers (n = 29). Transcripts were analyzed by thematic analysis, using the Health Belief Model (HBM) as a theoretical framework.
resultsTolerance of an unhealthy lifestyle because of the desire to enjoy life and avoidance of LS dominating their life were most frequently reported as important barriers of adherence to the recommendations. Most important facilitators of adherence to the recommendations were enhancement of wellbeing and intolerance of unhealthy foods due to colon surgery.
conclusionsThis study provided a comprehensive overview of determinants of adherence to recommendations for cancer prevention. These determinants, of which some are typically and unique for LS mutation carriers, can be used to design a lifestyle intervention that meets the needs of LS mutation carriers.
