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

Purpose: In the first level of health care, the timely detection of breast cancer is essential to prevent the progression of the disease, obtain optimal treatment and improve the prognosis and survival of patients. The objective of this study was to analyze the opportunity in referral to the Preventive Medicine Modules offered to women aged 40 to 69 years of the Family Medicine Unit 1, of the Mexican Social Security Institute, Decentralized Administrative Operation Body, Aguascalientes, Mexico, by their family physician, and its impact in the findings of mammographic screening according to the BI-RADS classification. Methods This was a cross-sectional comparative study of 412 mammograms performed on women aged 40 to 69, who were treated in the preventive medicine modules from January 2019 to June 2021. Data collection was carried out by simple random sampling using a checklist. Multiple logistic regression models adjusted for age were applied. Results: A total of 90.29% of the patients who underwent screening mammography were not referred in a timely manner to the preventive medicine modules by the family physician, this delay in diagnosis and treatment increased by 3.01 times the probability of having a classification BI-RADS suspected of malignancy compared to those women whose referral was timely (OR adj = 3.01, 95% CI 1.04-8.72, p = 0.041). Conclusion: The untimely referral of women aged 40-69 to preventive medicine modules for the detection of breast cancer increases the risk of finding a malignant lesión.
