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

The adoption of Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) approaches has increased due to its potential to reduce health disparities through Community-Academic Partnerships (CAP). Providing community members (CM) capacity-building opportunities is a way of empowering communities and promoting social change. To support the development of CAPs, the Community Training Institute for Health Disparities (CTIHD) was created in southern Puerto Rico to capacitate community leaders in the CBPR approach and basic research knowledge through the CTIHD-Community Research Program (CRP). In 2019, six syllabi-led courses were developed and implemented utilizing a problem-based curriculum design and competency-based learning model, with 12 community members enrolled. A mixed methodology assessed satisfaction, acceptance, feasibility, retention rate, and knowledge change from cognitive debriefing with semi-structured questions (qualitative), course evaluations, attendance, program documents, and pre-and post-tests (quantitative). Results indicate high levels of satisfaction from courses and retention rates of 100% and 91%, respectively. Post-course evaluation scores exceeded 70% in five (5) of six (6) courses, with two courses demonstrating statistically significant results (
