Risk Factors, Preventive Practices, and Health Care Among Breast Cancer Survivors, United States, 2010.
Article in Preventing chronic disease, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
introductionWe compared behavioral risk factors and preventive measures among female breast cancer survivors, female survivors of other types of cancers, and women without a history of cancer. Survivorship health care indicators for the 2 groups of cancer survivors were compared.
methodsUsing data from the 2010 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System, we calculated the proportion of women with risk factors and their engagement in preventive practices, stratified by cancer status (cancer survivors or women with no history of cancer), and compared the proportions after adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics.
resultsA significantly higher proportion of breast cancer survivors had mammography in the previous year (79.5%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 76.0%-83.0%) than did other cancer survivors (68.1%; 95% CI, 65.6%-70.7%) or women with no history of cancer (66.4%; 95% CI, 65.5%-67.3%). Breast cancer survivors were also more likely to have had a Papanicolaou (Pap) test within the previous 3 years than women with no history of cancer (89.4%; 95% CI, 85.9%-93.0 vs 85.1%; 95% CI, 84.4%-85.8%) and a colonoscopy within the previous 10 years (75.4%; 95% CI, 71.7%-79.0%) than women with no history of cancer (60.0%; 95% CI, 59.0%-61.0%). Current smoking was significantly lower among survivors of breast cancer (10.3%; 95% CI, 7.4%-13.2%) than other cancer survivors (20.8%; 95% CI, 18.4%-23.3%) and women with no history of cancer (18.3%; 95% CI, 17.5%-19.1%). After adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics, we found that breast cancer survivors were significantly more likely to have had mammography, a Pap test, and colonoscopy, and less likely to be current smokers.
conclusionBreast cancer survivors are more likely to engage in cancer screening and less likely to be current smokers than female survivors of other types of cancer or women with no history of cancer.
