Skin Cancer Recognition and Education Among Community Health Workers in Southern New Mexico.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
NM averages 450 new cases of melanoma annually. Promotoras are community health workers in NM that provide health education and resources to the community. The project aims to determine if promotora education can improve the recognition of suspicious lesions, encouraging community members to seek care. Current literature focuses on the self-reported confidence of CHWs in recognizing skin cancer. A total of 54 promotoras were sampled through a Qualtrics quiz asking whether skin lesion photos are suspicious. Participants were also asked to rate their confidence in recognizing a suspicious skin lesion and comfort in addressing it from 1 to 5. Participants then read an educational flyer about the "ABCDEs" of melanoma before repeating the quiz/ratings. Wilcoxon signed-rank testing revealed significant increases in quiz scores (
