1 · What the graph read from it

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.

Abstract

objectiveCulturally targeted narrative education is a promising approach to cancer prevention and control. This study evaluates the uptake of genetic counseling and testing (GCT) in Latinas at risk for hereditary breast and ovarian cancers (HBOC) after watching a culturally targeted narrative video and being navigated to GCT services.

methodsLatina women at increased risk for HBOC were recruited through community-based organizations. Participants responded to surveys before and after watching Spanish-language telenovela-style video. Surveys measured sociodemographic and clinical variables, HBOC and GCT knowledge, transportation with the story, identification with characters, and emotions elicited by the video. After watching video, participants were offered patient navigation services to free or low-cost GCT and completed a 3-month follow-up phone survey to assess GCT uptake.

resultsParticipants (N = 40) were 47.35 years old on average (SD = 9.48); all were born outside the United States. At the 3-month follow-up (N = 37), 27 (72.9%) and 26 (70.27%) participants had attended genetic counseling and genetic testing, respectively. U Mann Whitney tests found statistically significant differences between women who attended counseling versus those who did not at baseline knowledge (U = 216.00, p = 0.000) and distress elicited by the video (U = 73.5, p = 0.03). A logistic regression with distress elicited by the video as a predictive variable reached statististical significance (β = -0.27, p = 0.037, CI 95% 0.58-0.98).

conclusionsGCT uptake was promising, supporting a role for culturally targeted narrative video education along with a patient navigation component in increasing interest in cancer prevention and reducing healthcare disparities in HBOC genetic services.
