Sociodemographic inequities in overall survival among younger and older women with cervical cancer.
Article in Cancer causes & control : CCC, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeOlder Black women and women living in areas of low socioeconomic status (SES) diagnosed with cervical cancer (CC) have worse overall survival (OS). The objective was to investigate associations between OS and race/ethnicity and sociodemographic factors in younger (21-64 years) and older women (≥ 65 years) diagnosed with CC using Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program data.
methodsThis retrospective, population-based cohort study included 39,000 women ≥ 21 years diagnosed with CC diagnosed between 2006 and 2020. Age-group stratified Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for age, diagnosis year, and histology examined sociodemographic (rurality, SES, and persistent poverty) differences in OS.
resultsIn the sample, 82.8% were < 65 years. Compared to younger women, older women were more likely to be non-Latinx (NL) Black (16.0 vs 12.9%) and diagnosed with late-stage CC (67.9 vs 47.5%). Adjusted models suggested younger NL Black women had worse OS than their NL White counterparts (HR 1.45 [95% CI 1.37-1.54]), this association was not found among older NL Black women (HR 1.06 [95% CI 0.96-1.16]). Similarly, younger women in lowest SES areas had worse OS compared to women in highest SES areas (HR 1.82 [95% CI 1.69-1.96]), this association was attenuated in older women (HR 1.27 [95% CI 1.15-1.42]). Finally, younger women living in persistent poverty had worse OS compared to those who did not (HR 1.40 [95% CI 1.32-1.48]), this association was not found in older women (HR 1.10 [95% CI 0.99-1.21]).
conclusionSociodemographic disparities were found in CC OS for women < 65 that were attenuated or nonexistent in women ≥ 65 years.
