Socio-Economic Status and Clinical Breast Examination Screening Uptake: Findings from the First Cohort Study among Iranian Kurdish Women.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Clinical Breast Examination (CBE) is utilized as a screening modality in many low income countries without widespread mammography capability. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the impact of socio-economic status (SES) on CBE screening rates in Iranian Kurdish women. A cross-sectional study was conducted in the western region of Iran. A sample of 5,289 Iranian Kurdish women aged 35-65 years old was analyzed. Data were collected from July 2014 to September 2018. The Concentration Index-CI and Concentration Curve were used to estimate the socioeconomic inequalities in CBE rate. The analysis of data was done by STATA software (Version 14). 12.3% of the women had received CBE at least once. CBE rates in the 46-50 age group were higher than in other age groups (OR = 2.06; 95% CI = 1.56-2.71). Women with 6-9 years of education had higher odds ratio of receiving CBE (OR = 1.41; 95% CI = 1.02-1.94). Women living in rural areas were less likely to have received CBE compared to those living in urban areas (OR=0.54; 95% CI = 0.42-0.61). The overall concentration index for receipt of CBE was 0.188. In countries without widespread mammography programs, strategies for the promotion of CBE should focus on the lower SES population.<br />.
