Rationale and protocol for a prospective clinical trial enrollment improvement hybrid study within a trial.
Article in Contemporary clinical trials communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06465667 (Improving Engagement With a Process Measure Dashboard Through Precision Feedback), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Enrollment to clinical trials is challenging, and few evidence-based interventions to improve enrollment exist. Provider-facing advertising campaigns could help increase enrollment, but this type of intervention has not been prospectively evaluated in a clinical trial. Methods: We designed a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of a month-long email advertising campaign on enrollment to a clinical trial. This hybrid implementation-effectiveness Study Within a Trial tested the effect of precision audit and feedback techniques enrollment effectiveness outcomes (enrollment) and measured implementation outcomes (email opens, link clicks). This design is an application of a Study Within a Trial (SWAT) to evaluate an intervention intended to improve enrollment. The goal of this study was to inform both this advertising campaign and refine SWAT methods for evaluating future trial improvement interventions. Discussion: This Study Within a Trial provides preliminary data on the effectiveness of email advertising campaigns for improving clinical trial enrollment. Additionally, the infrastructure built through this SWAT will inform future studies of clinical trial enrollment improvement. This protocol can serve as a template for other investigators seeking to evaluate enrollment improvement interventions.
