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

backgroundLung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death among American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) people. Lung cancer screening (LCS) remains underutilized among AI/AN people. Multi-disciplinary perspectives can help to inform lung cancer prevention care for this population.

methodsWe conducted a mixed-methods study with healthcare providers and researchers who intersect with AI/AN care. Participants completed an electronic questionnaire and qualitative interviews about their role(s), perceptions of commercial tobacco use and cessation services, and LCS in AI/AN communities. Survey data were analyzed descriptively. Interview transcripts were analyzed using applied thematic analysis, with final themes organized by Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research domains.

resultsMulti-disciplinary care providers (n = 21) reported significant gaps in awareness of and access to tobacco cessation and LCS in AI/AN communities. Key themes include tailoring lung health resources to AI/AN cultures and improving access to and awareness of LCS. Ideal programming centers culture and family and applies Indigenous methodologies to optimize resource development.

conclusionStudy findings support culturally tailored resources and barrier directed supports to enhance commercial tobacco cessation and LCS in marginalized communities. By working collaboratively within and across disciplines, healthcare systems, and Tribal communities, we can optimize care to promote lung cancer prevention in AI/AN communities.
