Connecting Community to Research: A Training Program to Increase Community Engagement in Research.
Article in Progress in community health partnerships : research, education, and action, 2019. 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
backgroundThe Boston University Clinical & Translational Science Institute (BU CTSI) identified a local need to increase the capacity of members of a diverse inner-city community with no prior knowledge of research to partner with researchers along the research continuum.
objectivesTo design, implement, and evaluate an introductory- level capacity-building training using community pedagogy and providing information about current research and opportunities to partner with local researchers.
methodsGuided by two advisory boards of community-engaged professionals and patients, the community engagement team of the BU CTSI designed, implemented, and evaluated the Connecting Community to Research (CCR) training program. We targeted existing community groups in Boston interested in partnering with an academic institution to advance the health of their community. Interactive trainings focused on principles of community-engaged research (CEnR), and how individual experiences might influence research. Each session offered real-time opportunities for participants to engage with local researchers on existing research such as joining a local research advisory group or institutional review board. Self-administered surveys captured participant experiences.
conclusionsOver 1 year, we trained 100 community members and almost all participants felt that the objectives of the training program were met and the information was relevant. More than 50% of the participants took advantage of partnership opportunities with local researchers. A toolkit was designed and disseminated to support others to replicate the program. We demonstrated that an interactive training curriculum designed with a community-engaged pedagogy and supported by opportunities for engagement has the ability to successfully partner community members with academic researchers.
