1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The population-level implementation of innovative, evidence-based medical recommendations for adopting health-behaviors depends on the last link in the translation chain: the users. "User-friendly" medical interventions aimed at engaging users to adopt recommended health behaviors are best developed in a collaborative bio-medical and social sciences setting. In the 1990s, National Breast and Colorectal Cancer Early Detection Programs were launched at the Israeli Department of Community Medicine and Epidemiology. Operating under the largest HMO (Health Maintenance Organization) in Israel ("Clalit Health Services"), the department had direct access to HMO community primary-care clinics' teams, insured members, and medical records. Academically affiliated, the department engaged in translational research. In a decades-long translational process, this multi-disciplinary unit led a series of interventions built upon basic and applied behavioral/social science phenomena such as framing, "Implementation Intentions," and "Question-Behavior-Effect". A heterogeneous team of disciplinary specialists created an integrated scientific environment. In order to enhance screening, the team focused on the establishment of a systematic mechanism actively inviting programs' "users" (average-risk targeted individuals on the national level), and continuously applied social and health psychology concepts to study individuals' perceptions, expectations, and needs related to cancer screening. The increase in adherence to screening recommendations was slow and incremental. A decrease in late-stage breast and colorectal cancer diagnoses was observed nationally, but participation was lower than expected. This paper positions screening adherence as a unique challenge and proposes new social and network avenues to enhance future participation.
