Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander voices on the National Lung Cancer Screening Program: a qualitative study from Worimi and Awabakal country.
Article in The Medical journal of Australia, 2025. 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
objectiveTo gather communities' perspectives on the upcoming National Lung Cancer Screening Program (NLCSP) to guide appropriate and equitable access and uptake.
designQualitative study using Yarning methods. SETTING,
participantsYarning circles were conducted with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people on Awabakal and Worimi country in December 2023.
resultsTwenty-nine Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people participated in Yarning circles held at three locations across Awabakal and Worimi country. Community participants felt that the need for equitable and culturally safe NLCSP pathways is critical, with the NLCSP implementation plan and associated guidelines requiring multiple modes of health promotion, flexible eligibility that is equitable, alternative referral pathways to overcome barriers to access, and screening pathways and processes that are culturally responsive and community led.
conclusionsThe NLCSP provides a timely opportunity to improve health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. To achieve this, it is essential that the NLCSP is tailored to the needs of each community in accessing preventive health care and upholds rights to self-determination.
