Culturally and structurally competent approaches to health research with Black communities in Atlantic Canada: a rapid review.

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
introductionAnti-Black racism is deeply entrenched in Canadian institutions and has deleterious impacts on Black populations. Black populations have resided in the Atlantic region since the late 17th century. Despite longstanding histories, Atlantic Black populations face significant inequities, including the highest rates of child poverty among Black children across Canada. Community consultations in Atlantic Canada have highlighted a desire to bring attention to these health inequities. The purpose of this review was to identify existing literature pertaining to Black health research in Atlantic Canada and highlight culturally appropriate practices.
methodsThe search strategy was developed with a librarian and focussed on health research pertaining to Black populations in the Atlantic provinces of Canada, covering eight databases. All articles were imported into Covidence for screening, with independent reviewers assessing titles, abstracts and full texts.
resultsForty-seven studies met the inclusion criteria. Findings demonstrated the pervasiveness and impact of racism, the importance of community engagement as a key cultural consideration and the adoption of participatory action research frameworks as culturally appropriate.
conclusionThis review revealed opportunities for improving Black health research in Canada's Atlantic provinces. Future research warrants attention to this region and the use of culturally and structurally appropriate research approaches and methods. Recommendations include improved education on Black history and a training module within existing ethical guidelines for culturally and structurally competent research with Black communities.
