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

Despite colorectal cancer's (CRC) high global incidence, residents of low- and middle- income countries, as well as low-income minorities in advanced economies have low screening rates. Observational studies demonstrate that in these groups higher incidence of CRC is observed, yet screening rates remain low for consistent reasons. Low income, low educational background, and lack of awareness in combination with inadequate social security of certain population groups impede access and compliance rates to CRC screening. On the other hand, despite the global availability of multiple screening approaches (colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, faecal occult blood test, faecal immunochemical test, computed tomography-colonography,
