1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeWe examined colorectal cancer (CRC) risk perceptions among Black men in relation to socio-demographic characteristics, disease prevention factors, and personal/family history of CRC.

methodsA self-administered cross-sectional survey was conducted in five major cities in Florida between April 2008 and October 2009. Descriptive statistics and multivariable logistic regression were performed.

resultsAmong 331 eligible men, we found a higher proportion of CRC risk perceptions were exhibited among those aged ≥ 60 years (70.5%) and American nativity (59.1%). Multivariable analyses found men aged ≥ 60 had three times greater odds of having higher CRC risk perceptions compared to those ≤ 49 years (95% CI = 1.51-9.19). The odds of higher CRC risk perception for obese participants were more than four times (95% CI = 1.66-10.00) and overweight were more than twice the odds (95% CI = 1.03-6.31) as compared to healthy weight/underweight participants. Men using the Internet to search for health information also had greater odds of having higher CRC risk perceptions (95% CI = 1.02-4.00). Finally, men with a personal/family history of CRC were ninefold more likely to have higher CRC risk perceptions (95% CI = 2.02-41.79).

conclusionHigher CRC risk perceptions were associated with older age, being obese/overweight, using the Internet as a health information source, and having a personal/family history of CRC. Culturally resonate health promotion interventions are sorely needed to elevate CRC risk perceptions for increasing intention to screen among Black men.
