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

backgroundEfforts are needed to promote cancer knowledge and the uptake of cancer screening behaviors among Black Americans. Such efforts must be customized for the unique differences in facilitators/barriers among Black men and women. The present study leverages the potential of the UF Health Cancer Institute Community-Partnered Cancer Disparities Research Collaborative (CDRC) to identify the psychosocial and structural factors associated with cancer knowledge and screening behaviors among Black American men and women.

method411 Black Americans participated in this cross-sectional study; 75.9% identified as cisgender women and 24.1% as cisgender men.

resultsOlder age, higher education and income level were significantly associated with increased cancer-related knowledge among Black men and women across different cancer types, while greater perceived racism was significantly associated with decreased cancer-related knowledge. Older age, greater perceptions of provider cultural sensitivity, and greater patient satisfaction with the provider were significantly associated with increased odds of cancer-related screening among Black women and men, across cancer types. Notably, greater time spent with provider was associated with decreased odds of cancer-related screening among Black women, while greater patient satisfaction with accessibility and convenience was significantly associated with increased odds of cancer-related screening among Black men.

conclusionThe CDRC and the CBPR approach together hold potential for engaging Black men and women in cancer research similar to that in the present study. The results of this study can help inform future research and interventions that aim to promote cancer knowledge and screening behaviors among Black men and women.
