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
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in Latinas and the leading cause of cancer death. Latinas tend to be diagnosed at later stages, receive poorer quality care and have a higher risk of mortality than non-Latina White (NLW) women. Among women with a genetic predisposition to hereditary BC, genetic counseling can be beneficial. Latinas participate in genetic counseling at lower rates than NLW women. The goal of this study was to develop comprehensive, culturally appropriate materials for community health educators (promotores)-led hereditary BC education program for Spanish-speaking Latinas. We developed the curriculum through feedback from 7 focus groups, with a total of 68 participants (35 promotores and 33 community members). We used a mixed-methods approach that relied on quantitative analysis of survey questions and qualitative content analysis of the focus groups transcripts. Pre and post promotores' training survey responses suggested improvement in the promotores' cancer-related knowledge. Themes that emerged from the qualitative analyses were (i) barriers to health education and/or care; (ii) importance of educating the Latino community about BC and genetics and (iii) role of the promotores. Future research will further evaluate the impact of the program in promotores' knowledge and community members' screening behaviors.
