[Systematic and quality-assured early diagnosis of sporadic breast cancer : Update on screening effects and scientific studies].
Review in Der Radiologe, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundA quality-assured mammography screening programme has been available since 2009, nationwide, to all women in Germany between the ages of 50 and 69. The programme is based on the European Guidelines. In this review article the authors summarize the current status of scientific assessments of this national early detection programme for breast cancer and provide an outlook regarding ongoing studies on effectiveness tests and further development.
resultsWe expect a decline in mortality rates relating to breast cancer as a result of successfully bringing diagnoses forward and a decrease in advanced breast cancer after a repeated screening. The extent will be shown in the current ZEBra study on mortality evaluation.
conclusionPotential for a further increase in the effectiveness of the systematic early detection of breast cancer can be identified in four areas: (1) More women should take advantage of the early detection opportunities offered by the medical insurance funds; so far, on average, only about 50% of the women between 50 and 69 who are entitled to a screening examination actually take part in the programme. (2) Entitlement to take part in the programme should be extended to women over 70. (3) The further development of digital mammography towards digital breast tomosynthesis promises to reduce the number of false positive recalls while at the same time increasing sensitivity. (4) There should be scientific studies relating to an extension of screening strategies for the small number of women in the entitlement range who have extremly dense breasts.
