From Insights to Impact: Understanding Cancer Screening Choices through Mixed-Methods.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThe main objective of this comprehensive mixed-methods investigation conducted in Jordan were to explore and understand men's engagement in cancer screening.
methodsThe research employed a mixed-methods approach, combining a survey with 209 participants and focus group interviews with 30 individuals. The survey involved quantitative data collection methods to gather information on cancer screening participation rates among men in Amman. Focus group interviews were conducted to collect qualitative data on the factors influencing cancer screening utilization among men in Amman.
resultsThe study revealed a notably low participation rate, with less than 37% of men engaging in cancer screening. The diminished involvement was attributed to several factors, including health illiteracy, language barriers, restricted access to health-related information and screening services, and cultural considerations.
conclusionsBased on the findings, the research strongly advocates for tailored interventions that are culturally specific. The emphasis is on the importance of training community health workers to address the identified challenges and enhance both cancer prevention awareness and screening accessibility in Jordan.
