Knowledge, Attitude, Practice, and Perceived Barriers Regarding Colorectal Cancer Screening Practices Among Healthcare Practitioners: A Systematic Review.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The recommendations of medical professionals play a significant role in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening. This study aims to systematically review knowledge, attitude, practice, and perceived barriers regarding CRC screening practices among healthcare practitioners (HCPs). From January 2023 to December 2023, a comprehensive literature search was conducted using online databases, including Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, and Research Gate, by using the following keywords in combination: "knowledge," "attitude," "practice," "perceived barriers," "colorectal cancer," and "health practitioners." The researchers screened and examined the retrieved literature. A total of 21 studies were considered relevant for the current review. Among these studies, eight assessed the level of knowledge, attitude, practices, and perceived barriers toward CRC screening among various health practitioners. Three studies assessed knowledge and attitudes toward CRC screening among health practitioners. The remaining ten studies assessed awareness, perceived barriers, or only knowledge of CRC screening among HCPs. In addition, all the included studies employed a cross-sectional design. The review shows that many healthcare providers need more fundamental knowledge of CRC screening. Healthcare procedures must be improved to enhance the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of healthcare professionals regarding CRC screening and their understanding of the associated barriers.
