Aggregated results for reported benefits and harms, stratified by leaflets and booklets.
<p>The figure indicates whether a leaflet contains <u>any</u> information on the benefits of CRC screening a) in general or specifically for b) colonoscopy or c) the FOBT, and whether it contains any information on the d) general and e) specific harms of colonoscopy. To be rated positive for harms, it was not sufficient if the only information about possible harms referred to pain, stating incorrectly that there is no pain involved.</p
