Centralization of mammography reporting with mobile trucks: Turkish experience.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 4 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
Screening via mammography is a complex process to be implemented.
objectiveTo report the initial results and the effectiveness of newly implemented Turkey's population based breast cancer screening program performed for 40-69 years old women; and effectiveness of the newly implemented out-sourcing mobile trucks and national central report center. The study is conducted prospectively in one year (March 2016-March 2017) in all 81 provinces of Turkey. Mammography images were transferred via on-line web based system to the central reporting center. BI-RADS Scores and KETEM models (Mobile vs. Stationary) were the parameters were compared. In total mammography images of 414.802 patients were transferred from 155 KETEMs to the central reporting center. From these patients; 95.872 (23,1%) were aged between 40 and 44. Among all images, 21.999 (5,3%) were BI-RADS 0-4-5, 391.123 (94,3%) were BI-RADS 1-2. Totally recall rate of the national reporting center was 5.3%. Number of patients screened per day were significantly higher in out-sourcing mobile trucks compared to stationary KETEMs (31.8 vs. 8.9;
