Examining Mammography Use by Breast Cancer Risk, Race, Nativity, and Socioeconomic Status.
Article in Journal of immigrant and minority health, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Minority and foreign-born women report lower rates of mammograms compared to non-Hispanic white, U.S.-born women, even though they have increased risk for developing breast cancer. We examine disparities in mammography across breast cancer risk groups and determine whether disparities are explained by socioeconomic factors. Propensity score methodology was used to classify individuals from the 2000, 2005, and 2010 National Health Interview Survey according to their risk for developing breast cancer. Logistic regression models were used to predict the likelihood of mammography. Compared to non-Hispanic white women, Mexicans, Asians and "other" racial/ethnic origins were less likely to have undergone a mammogram. After controlling for breast cancer risk, socioeconomic status and health care resources, Mexican, Cuban, Dominican, Central American, Black, and foreign-born women had an increased likelihood of receiving a mammogram. Using propensity scores makes an important contribution to the literature on sub-population differences in the use of mammography by addressing the confounding risk of breast cancer. While other factors related to ethnicity or culture may account for lower breast cancer screening rates in Asian and Mexican women, these findings highlight the need to consider risk, in addition to socioeconomic factors, that may pose barriers to screening in determining mammography disparities.
