Clinical Factors Associated with Adherence to the Follow-Up Examination after Positive Fecal Occult Blood Test in National Colorectal Cancer Screening.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Background
methodsThe study population comprised adults aged ≥50 years who participated in the National Cancer Screening Program for colorectal cancer (CRC) in 2013. Compliance was defined as undergoing follow-up examination within 1 year of a positive FOBT.
resultsFrom 214,131 individuals with a positive FOBT, 120,911 (56.5%) were in the compliance group and 93,220 (43.5%) were in the non-compliance group. On multivariate analysis, good compliance was associated with men (odds ratio (OR) = 1.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.09-1.15)), younger ages (70-79 years, OR = 2.19 (2.09-2.31); 60-69 years, OR = 3.29 (3.13-3.46); 50-59 years, OR = 3.57 (3.39-3.75) vs. >80 years), previous experience of CRC screening (a negative FOBT, OR = 1.18 (1.15-1.21); a positive FOBT, OR = 2.42 (2.31-2.54)), absent previous experience of colonoscopy or barium enema (OR = 2.06 (1.99-2.13)), higher economic income (quartile, 75%, OR = 1.14 (1.11-1.17); 100%, OR = 1.22 (1.19-1.25)), current smokers (OR = 1.12 (1.09-1.15)), alcohol intake (OR = 1.03 (1.01-1.05)), active physical activity (≥3 times/week, OR = 1.13 (1.11-1.15)), depression (OR = 1.11 (1.08-1.14)), and present comorbidities (Charlson Comorbidity Index, ≥1).
conclusionThis study identified clinical factors, namely, male, younger ages, prior experience of fecal test, absent history of colonoscopy or double-contrast barium enema (DCBE) within 5 years, and high socioeconomic status to be associated with good adherence to the follow-up examination after a positive FOBT.
