1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionChanges to which age groups are recommended for mammography may have affected screening rates for all women. This spillover effect has not previously been shown empirically in a national sample.

methodsUsing data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System from 2002 to 2018, authors tested whether screening trends at a national level changed after the 2009 U.S. Preventive Services Task Force guideline change. The authors also tested whether state-level screening trends for women aged 40-49 years and 75+ years were associated with screening trends for women aged 50-74 years. Analyses were conducted in March-December 2022.

resultsIn a model predicting state-level trends in screening for women aged 50-74 years, authors find positive, statistically significant associations with screening trends for women aged 40-49 years (p=0.033) and for women aged 75+ years (p<0.001).

conclusionsDeimplementation is difficult and important for controlling healthcare spending and delivering high value care. However, states most successful at reducing mammography screening rates among those aged 40-49 years and 75+ years also had greater reductions in recommended screening among women aged 50-74 years. More work is needed to understand and mitigate the unintended consequences of deimplementation.
