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

purposeThis study is the first to comprehensively describe incidence rates and trends of screening-amenable cancers (colorectal, lung, female breast, and cervical) among non-Hispanic AI/AN (NH-AI/AN) people.

methodsUsing the United States Cancer Statistics AI/AN Incidence Analytic Database, we, calculated incidence rates for colorectal, lung, female breast, and cervical cancers for NH-AI/AN and non-Hispanic White (NHW) people for the years 2014-2018 combined. We calculated age-adjusted incidence rates (per 100,000), total percent change in incidence rates between 1999 and 2018, and trends over this time-period using Joinpoint analysis. Screening prevalence by region was calculated using Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data.

resultsRates of screening-amenable cancers among NH-AI/AN people varied by geographic region and age at diagnosis. Over half of all lung and colorectal cancers in NH-AI/AN people were diagnosed at later stages. Rates of lung and colorectal cancers decreased significantly between 1999-2018 among NH-AI/AN men, but no significant changes were observed in rates of screening-amenable cancers among NH-AI/AN women.

conclusionThis study highlights disparities in screening-amenable cancers between NH-AI/AN and NHW people. Culturally informed, community-based interventions that increase access to preventive health services could reduce cancer disparities among AI/AN people.
