What Are the Factors Underlying Colorectal Cancer Health Disparities?
Article in Cancer prevention research (Philadelphia, Pa.), 2022. 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
Black Americans have the highest colorectal cancer incidence and mortality rates of any U.S. racial/ethnic group. Warren Andersen and colleagues report that sociocultural, lifestyle, and healthcare factors did not explain the racial disparity in colorectal cancer incidence, but colorectal cancer screening lessened the disparity. While screening is a cornerstone of colorectal cancer prevention, an improved understanding of etiologic factors may inform additional strategies for primary prevention or risk stratification. As important "established" colorectal cancer risk factors have not been corroborated for Black Americans, this begs the question of what other etiologic factors are important for colorectal cancer development in Black American populations.
