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

Lung cancer screening (LCS) has been shown to reduce lung cancer mortality; however, numerous obstacles impede the successful development and expansion of LCS programs, particularly in underserved communities where uptake is limited. Neighborhood disadvantage plays a significant role, as numerous studies have elucidated the influence of race, ethnicity, income, and other measures of social disadvantage on LCS, as well as lung nodule surveillance programs. Successful development and expansion of LCS and nodule programs in inner-city hospitals can be an important means of improving health equity. The present commentary describes the key elements, challenges, and solutions involved in the successful implementation of an LCS program in an urban safety-net hospital, focusing on high-impact relationships with intra-institutional and system-level stakeholders.
