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.

2 · The registry

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

Background and Aims: Endoscopy holds a pivotal role in colorectal (CRC) and gastric cancer screening, and adherence rates might be impacted by the patient's risk perception, encompassing concerns about complications during endoscopic screening procedures. This study aimed to evaluate how individuals perceive the risk of complications associated with undergoing a screening colonoscopy and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy (UGIE). Methods: This is a cross-sectional study enrolling individuals eligible for CRC screening in northern Portugal, where a populational fecal occult blood test program is implemented. The validated PERCEPT-PREVENT tool was applied through telephonic interviews in 2 groups: (a) never-screened and (b) already submitted to endoscopic screening. Results: Among the 217 included healthy participants, 61% ( Discussion: Enhancing risk perception and knowledge of complications associated with endoscopic screening procedures offers an opportunity to increase adherence rates.
