Psychosocial Correlates of Experience and Intention to Receive Colorectal Cancer Screening: A Cross-Sectional Study Among East African Men in the U.S.
Article in The journal of primary prevention, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Cancer screening is an important approach to reducing disease burden. The rate of colorectal cancer (CRC) screening among immigrants in the U.S. is very low. Our study's aim was to examine correlates of experience with, and intention to, receive CRC screening among East African men who were up-to-date (UTD) with CRC screening (n = 64, mean age 65) and those who had never been screened or were overdue for one (NOD; n = 47, mean age 60), compared on demographic characteristics, attitudes toward cancer, psychosocial stress, and health behaviors. UTD men had significantly less emotional concerns about cancer screening and experienced significantly greater distress and lower resiliency than NOD men. However, these results were attenuated after controlling for demographic confounders. Perceived risk, trust in the medical system, and PTSD symptoms were significantly associated with an intention to undertake CRC screening in the next 12 months. These results should be used to guide efforts toward increasing CRC screening rates among immigrant communities.
