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
Black men are disproportionately affected by prostate cancer (PCa) incidence and mortality. Limited research has been reported on the ethnic differences among Black men in regard to family history, knowledge, and screening habits. Thus, this study was conducted to understand and compare knowledge levels and family history of the three main Black subgroups (African Americans, Caribbean immigrants, and African immigrants) in the USA and to assess the influence of knowledge on past screening behavior and intentionality for screening in the future for PCa. A concurrent mixed-methods design was used with participants (N = 396) recruited from different parts of the country. The grounded theory method of analysis was used for qualitative data and a logistic regression was used to explain the relationship between screening intentionality and PCa knowledge and family history. Qualitative results indicated that subjective PCa knowledge between the three subgroups was relatively similar but differed based on whether a person knew a family member or friend who had been affected by the disease. Themes focused on risk, PCa education, screening, and impact on sexuality. Quantitatively, result revealed that there are ethnic differences in knowledge across the three subgroups. Additionally, regression results revealed that family history is a stronger predictor of screening behavior and intentionality than knowledge. This study was able to unveil a deeper understanding on the role of family history and knowledge on PCa among Black subgroups.
