Translated Educational Infographics Increase Colorectal Cancer Screening Rates in Non-Native English Speakers
These findings demonstrate that providing translated and language-concordant infographics significantly increased colorectal cancer screening rates and patient understanding among non-native English speakers. Creating and integrating the use of culturally and linguistically tailored educational materials in resource-limited clinics can help eliminate disparities and narrow the colorectal cancer screening gap in Asian American and Pacific Islander communities.
