Sociodemographic changes in the population frequency of colonoscopy following the implementation of organised bowel cancer screening: An analysis of data from Swedish registers, 2006-2015.
Article in Journal of medical screening, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo assess sociodemographic changes in the population frequency of colonoscopy (PFC; number of colonoscopies per 1000 inhabitants per year) among people aged 50-74 in relation to the implementation of a regional colorectal cancer screening programme for people aged 60-69 in the Stockholm-Gotland region (RSG) in 2008.
methodThe PFC was estimated by year (2006-2015), pre- and post-implementation of colorectal cancer screening programme (2006-2007 vs. 2014-2015), age, sex, residential region, immigrant status and educational level. The data were obtained from Swedish patient and population registers.
resultsThe PFC largely increased during 2006-2015 in all six Swedish regions. The estimated increase in the pre- vs. post period PFC (ΔPFC) within the RSG was (i) greater for men than for women (5.8 vs. 4.5) and (ii) smaller for people aged 70-74 than for those aged 60-69 (5.5 vs. 9.0), while the corresponding ΔPFCs within each of the other regions were (i) not greater, or even smaller, for men and (ii) not smaller, or even larger, for elderly people aged 70-74.
conclusionA regional implementation of an organised colorectal cancer screening programme did not lead to a higher PFC increase in the screening relevant age group 50-74 years. Nevertheless, changes in the PFC were more pronounced for men and less pronounced for people aged 70-74 than those invited to participate in the screening programme (60-69 years), as compared with the rest of Sweden (without organised colorectal cancer screening).
