Factors influencing participation in lung cancer screening among screening-eligible adults: a scoping review.
Review in Preventive medicine reports, 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
Objective: Participation in low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) lung cancer screening remains suboptimal, and evidence on participation determinants is heterogeneous. This scoping review mapped participation factors using the Capability-Opportunity-Motivation-Behavior (COM-B) framework to guide intervention development. Methods: We conducted an international scoping review of studies published between January 2013 and June 2025. PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searched. Quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods studies examining participation among adults eligible for LDCT screening were included. Factors were coded inductively and mapped to framework domains. Overall, 3229 unique records were screened. Results: Thirty-nine studies were included: 22 quantitative, 13 qualitative, and four mixed-methods studies. Determinants spanned all framework domains. Factors most often associated with higher participation included risk awareness ( Conclusions: Participation reflects interacting factors. Health literacy barriers, misconceptions, and practical constraints may prevent favorable intentions from translating into uptake. Interventions should combine tailored communication, clinician engagement, improved access, and support addressing risk perception, fear, stigma, and trust.
