Capturing Catchment Area Data Comprehensively: The North Carolina Cancer Health Assets and Needs Assessment (CHANA) Approach.
Article in Preventive oncology & epidemiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Background: A key requirement of community outreach and engagement offices within National Cancer Institute-designated cancer centers is to conduct a comprehensive examination of their catchment area's population, cancer burden, and assets. To accomplish this task, we describe the plan for implementing our initiative, the Cancer Health Assets and Needs Assessment (CHANA). CHANA compiles, into a single source, up-to-date data that describes the cancer landscape of North Carolina's 100 counties. Methods: CHANA utilized a three phased approach: 1) compiling existing data from publicly available sources; 2) analyzing novel data source, which links state cancer registry, multi-payer insurance claims, and area-level contextual data; and 3) conducting surveys of the general public and cancer survivors and key informant interviews with cancer-related community organizations to understand their priorities and resources. These multifaceted data resources are curated and compiled into three key dissemination products: a summary report, county-level profile reports, and interactive online data dashboards. Discussion: Through data-driven efforts like CHANA, cancer centers and the communities they serve can better understand gaps in care and information needs, opportunities, and resources to improve health outcomes, and priorities for new research and programmatic endeavors focused on prevention, healthcare access, equity, and quality.
