Nativity disparities in late-stage diagnosis and cause-specific survival among Hispanic women with invasive cervical cancer: an analysis of Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results data.

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
purposeWhile cervical cancer screening and risk behaviors have been found to vary among US- and foreign-born Hispanic women, many cancer epidemiology studies have conceptualized Hispanics as a homogenous group. Here, we examine differences in cervical cancer stage at diagnosis and survival among Hispanic women by nativity.
methodsWe use data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program, 1998-2008. Nativity was based on place of birth and was categorized as US versus foreign born. Distant and regional tumors were classified as late stage, while local tumors were classified as early stage.
resultsForty-seven percent of cases of invasive cervical cancer among Hispanics were diagnosed at a late stage, and over half of invasive cervical cancer cases were among foreign-born women. Foreign-born Hispanic women were significantly more likely than US-born Hispanics to have late-stage diagnosis, after adjusting for age at diagnosis and tumor histology (adjusted odds ration = 1.09, p value = 0.003). There was heterogeneity in the association between nativity and survival by stage at diagnosis. Among cases with early-stage diagnosis, survival was poorer among foreign-born versus US-born Hispanics after adjusting for age at diagnosis, histology, and cancer-directed therapy [adjusted hazard ratios (HR) = 1.31, p value = 0.030]. However, among cases with late-stage diagnosis, survival was better among foreign-born Hispanics (adjusted HR = 0.81, p value < 0.001).
conclusionsWe hypothesize that nativity differences in survival may be indicative of diverse risk, screening, and treatment profiles. Given such differences, it may be inappropriate to aggregate Hispanics as a single group for cervical cancer research.
