Reducing Breast Cancer Disparities with Precision Public Health: A New Strategy to Improve Prevention and Advance Health Equity in Delaware Hotspots.
Article in Delaware journal of public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
While Black and White women are diagnosed with breast cancer (BC) at similar rates, Black women die from BC at a 40% higher rate. This disparity is even more pronounced for younger Black women, who die from BC at nearly twice the rate as younger White women. Black-White differences in BC mortality are largely attributable to health care and tumor biology factors. Black women face greater barriers to accessing BC screening and are twice as likely to be diagnosed with the aggressive triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) subtype. Delaware leads the US for the incidence of late-stage BC diagnosed among younger women and TNBC. This commentary begins with a discussion of precision public health, an emerging framework that builds on and complements recent advances in precision medicine. Next, a new precision public health initiative designed to reduce BC disparities in Delaware by targeting local hotspots with prevention interventions is presented. Finally, next steps are considered for implementation, evaluation, and new research activities.
