Community health worker insights on promoting research engagement with diverse populations.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Representation of diverse populations in health research enhances our ability to understand the factors that impact health, generalize results, implement findings, and promote social justice. The primary objective of the study was to understand the unique perspectives of frontline community health workers (CHWs) to identify actionable barriers and facilitators that may impact representation of diverse groups in health research. Focus groups with CHWs were conducted followed by thematic analysis. Results revealed five main themes: barriers/risks to research participation, facilitation of research, CHW roles, recommendations, and transparency. A novel finding was that some CHWs see themselves as both facilitators and gatekeepers. As facilitators, CHWs ensure their patient populations receive resources and benefit from being involved in research; as gatekeepers CHWs feel that they protect patient populations from experiencing further trauma, especially when engaging in research. Recognizing that in many communities there is a high reliance and trust with CHWs, can promote genuine and informed participation at all stages of research.
