Changes in Lifestyle Factors After Endoscopic Screening: A Prospective Study in the United States.
Article in Clinical gastroenterology and hepatology : the official clinical practice journal of the American Gastroenterological Association, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundEndoscopic screening and adherence to a healthy lifestyle are major avenues for colorectal cancer (CRC) prevention. We investigated changes in lifestyles after endoscopic screening.
methodsWe drew data from 76,303 pairs of time- and age-matched individuals who had and had not, respectively, reported first time endoscopic screening, in the 3 cohorts (Nurses' Health Study I and II and the Health Professionals Follow-up Study). Detailed information was collected every 2-4 years on endoscopy screening, 12 lifestyle factors (including smoking, physical activity, regular use of aspirin/nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, body weight, and 8 dietary factors), and adherence to a healthy lifestyle based on a score defined by 5 major lifestyle factors (smoking, alcohol, body weight, physical activity, and diet). We assessed changes in lifestyle from pre- to post-screening periods for the matched pairs. We also conducted subgroup analysis according to screening findings (negative, low- and high-risk polyps, and CRC).
resultsEndoscopic screening was associated with higher prevalence of adherence to a healthy lifestyle (odds ratio [OR], 1.09; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04-1.16). The association strengthened with the severity of the screening findings, with an OR of 1.09 (95% CI, 1.03-1.15) for negative screening, 1.19 (95% CI, 1.07-1.33) for low-risk polyps, 1.42 (95% CI, 1.14-1.77) for high-risk polyps, and 1.55 (95% CI, 1.17-2.05) for CRC. The individual lifestyle factors and diet showed modest change.
conclusionsEndoscopic screening was associated with a modest improvement in healthy lifestyles, particularly in individuals with more severe endoscopic findings. Further efforts of integrating lifestyle medicine into the screening setting are needed, to better leverage the teachable moment in improving CRC prevention.
