Preference for endoscopic screening of upper gastrointestinal cancer among Chinese rural residents: a discrete choice experiment.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: The low uptake rate of upper gastrointestinal cancer (UGC) screening substantially reduces the benefits of endoscopic screening. This study aimed to obtain residents' UGC screening preferences to optimize screening strategies and increase the participation rate. Methods: A discrete choice experiment (DCE) was conducted to assess UGC screening preferences of 1,000 rural residents aged 40 to 70 years from three countries (Linqu, Feicheng, and Dongchangfu) of Shandong province in China. The DCE questionnaire was developed from five attributes: out-of-pocket costs, screening interval, regular follow-up for precancerous lesions, mortality reduction, and screening technique. The data from the DCE were analyzed within the framework of random utility theory using a mixed logit model. Results: In total, 926 of 959 residents who responded were analyzed. The mean (SD) age was 57.32 (7.22) years. The five attributes all significantly affected residents' preferences, and the painless endoscopy had the most important impact ( Conclusions: UGC screening implementation should consider residents' preferences to maximize the screening participation rate. Resources permitting, we can carry out the optimal screening program with shorter screening intervals, lower out-of-pocket costs, less pain, follow-up, and higher UGC mortality reduction.
