Community Informed Recruitment: A Promising Method to Enhance Clinical Trial Participation.
Review in Journal of pain and symptom management, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03767517 (A Community Developed, Culturally-Based Palliative Care Tele-Consult Program for African American and White Rural Southern Elders With a Life Limiting Illness), which is not on this map. Cited by 13 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.

Abstract
contextLow recruitment rates in palliative care clinical trials amongst Black and rural individuals have been attributed to lack of trust and procedural barriers. Community engagement strategies have increased clinical trial participation of under-represented populations.
objectiveDescribe a successful community-engaged recruitment strategy in an ongoing multi-site randomized clinical trial (RCT). STUDY DESIGN AND
methodsUsing community-based participatory research principles and input from a prior pilot study's community advisory group (CAG), we designed a novel recruitment strategy for Community Tele-Pal, a three-site, culturally based palliative care tele-consult RCT for Black and White seriously ill inpatients and their family caregivers. Local site CAGs helped design and implement a recruitment strategy in which a CAG member accompanied the study coordinators to introduce the study to eligible patients. Initially, CAG members could not accompany study coordinators in person due to pandemic restrictions. Hence, they created videos of themselves introducing the study, just as they would have done in person. We examined outcomes to date by the three recruitment methods and race.
resultsOf the 2879 patients screened, 228 were eligible and approached. Overall, the proportions of patients who consented 102 (44.7%) vs. not consented 126 (55.3%) were similar by race- White (consented= 75 [44.1%]) vs; Black (consented = 27 [46.6%]). Proportionally, consent rates favored CAG-involved methods: coordinator only- 47 approached and 13 (12.7%) consented vs. coordinator/CAG video-105 approached and 60 (58.8%) consented.
conclusionA novel community-enhanced recruitment strategy demonstrated the potential to increase clinical trial participation from historically under-represented populations.
