The Health Disparities Field Experience: College students and community health workers in the field.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
contextImmersing students studying health promotion and disease prevention into community settings facing health disparities is an essential supplement to their academic experience. As part of many public health professions, these students will likely need to understand the values and beliefs of different cultures so that decisions of appropriate health promotion and treatment can be made equitably. This paper evaluates an education immersion program that was part of a National Cancer Institute funded collaboration supporting the recruitment and training of university students in cancer research. The primary aim of the Health Disparities Field Experience (HDFE) was to facilitate an experience for students pursuing a health-related degree to understand the conceptual issues in border/rural health and the cultural contexts related to health disparities among medically and financially indigent populations in the region. SUBJECTS AND
methodsThis study was conducted using qualitative research methods using a variation of the content analysis approach using open codes to categorize the data. Six students were selected to participate in the HDFE (five graduate students and one undergraduate) and all six of the participants completed pre- and post-test surveys.
resultsFrom the analysis of the data, posttest qualitative responses indicated that three participants saw racism as a primary cause of cancer-related disparities, a change from their pretest responses. When asked about the personal impact of the HDFE, respondents mentioned the importance of the experiential component.
conclusionsParticipants learned about health disparities from the HDFE and expressed high satisfaction with this approach to education.
