Barriers to Breast Cancer Screening Among Immigrant Populations in Canada.
Review in Journal of immigrant and minority health, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
The objective of this study is to summarize the current knowledge about barriers to breast cancer screening among immigrant and ethnic women and to determine future research opportunities in this area. A scoping review of the literature was conducted following a five-stage framework. Electronic databases of peer-reviewed articles and grey literature were searched based on comprehensive sets of key words, without restricting the time period or language. Barriers were classified into six themes: socioeconomic, cultural, communication, healthcare-system-related, knowledge-related, and personal barriers. Lack of education, lack of physicians' recommendation, a preference for female physicians, the inability to speak one of the official languages, and embarrassment were some of the common barriers identified. The reported barriers can be used as a source of information for policymakers, healthcare providers, and researchers to decide the future direction of research in this field.
