Identifying the Social Determinants of Breast Health Behavior: a Qualitative Content Analysis
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Background: Prevention, early diagnosis and reduction of mortality caused by breast cancer are the priorities of the world health systems. The aim of this study was to identify the social factors that affect the women’s breast health behavior based on the social determinants model of the World Health Organization (WHO). Materials and Method: This qualitative study was conducted and analyzed using content analysis approach. The data were collected from 32 participants by semi-structured interviews and focused group discussion. The participants comprised of breast surgeons, radiologists, health care providers and women over 35 years of age in Tehran who were selected through purposeful sampling. The interviews continued until data saturation was reached. Results: Based on the experiences of the participants, three themes were obtained from the data that shaped the women’s breast health behavior, including 1) the context of health policy, 2) socioeconomic status, and 3) cultural, psychological, and behavioral factors. Conclusion: A better understanding of social determinants related to breast health behavior can be effective in designing and applying of appropriate theories and models of education and intervention, so that, by early diagnosis of breast cancer and timely treatment of patients, the disease complications and mortality would be reduced.
