Integrating public preferences to overcome racial disparities in research: findings from a US survey on enhancing trust in research data-sharing practices.
Article in JAMIA open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Objectives: Data-sharing policies are rapidly evolving toward increased data sharing. However, participants' perspectives are not well understood and could have an adverse impact on participation in research. We evaluated participants' preferences for sharing specific types of data with specific groups, and strategies to enhance trust in data-sharing practices. Materials and Methods: In March 2023, we conducted a nationally representative online survey with 610 US adults and used logistic regression models to assess sociodemographic differences in their willingness to share different types of data. Results: Our findings highlight notable racial disparities in willingness to share research data with external entities, especially health policy and public health organizations. Black participants were significantly less likely to share most health data with public health organizations, including mental health (odds ratio [OR]: 0.543, 95% CI, 0.323-0.895) and sexual health/fertility information (OR: 0.404, 95% CI, 0.228-0.691), compared to White participants. Moreover, 63% of participants expressed that their trust in researchers would improve if given control over the data recipients. Discussion: Participants exhibit reluctance to share specific types of personal research data, emphasizing strong preferences regarding external data access. This highlights the need for a critical reassessment of current data-sharing policies to align with participant concerns. Conclusion: It is imperative for data-sharing policies to integrate diverse patient viewpoints to mitigate risk of distrust and a potential unintended consequence of lower participation among racial and ethnic minority participants in research.
