Effectiveness Review
Analytic Framework
[PDF - 230 KB] – see Figure 3 on page 101
When starting an effectiveness review, the systematic review team develops an analytic framework. The analytic framework illustrates how the intervention approach is thought to affect public health. It guides the search for evidence and may be used to summarize the evidence collected. The analytic framework often includes intermediate outcomes, potential effect modifiers, potential harms, and potential additional benefits.

The following list of included studies is for reviews of provider assessment and feedback to increase breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screening. *Studies that included colorectal cancer screening.
The number of studies and publications do not always correspond (e.g., a publication may include several studies or one study may be explained in several publications).

Planning Guide
Evidence-Based Intervention Planning Guide 
Developed by CDC’s Division of Cancer Prevention and Control
This planning guide provides tips to help clinic staff implement provider assessment and feedback interventions to increase screening for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer. The guide includes a process flow diagram of the intervention theory; process evaluation metrics, outputs, and example measures; a list of resources needed to support implementation, such as partnerships, staff, and tools; lessons learned from studies included the Community Guide systematic reviews; and intervention components.
Action Guide
Increasing Colorectal Cancer Screening: An Action Guide for Working with Health Systems
[PDF - 4.6 MB] 
Developed by CDC’s Division of Cancer Prevention and Control
The following outlines the search strategy used for these reviews of interventions to increase breast, cervical, and colorectal cancer screening: Client Reminders; Client Incentives; Mass Media Targeting Clients; Group Education for Clients; One-on-One Education for Clients; Reducing Structural Barriers for Clients; Reducing Client Out-of-Pocket Costs; Provider Assessment and Feedback; Provider Incentives.
Effectiveness Review
With the assistance of a CDC librarian, the following databases were searched for publications from 2004 up to 2008: Medline (Ovid), CINAHL (Ovid), PsycINFO (Ovid), Cochrane [Cochrane Reviews, Other Reviews, Methods Studies, Technology Assessments, Economic Evaluations], WoS (SSCI only), Chronic Disease Prevention - cancer prevention and control subcategory (no longer exists).
The team considered studies for inclusion if they were human studies conducted in high income economies according to the World Bank, and published in English.
