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

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is the leading cancer among women globally. Early detection through screening is vital for reducing mortality, complementing advancements in treatment. Methods: We aimed to overview BC screening practices in Iran over two-decades to inform policymakers for future research directions and prompt timely diagnoses. A scoping review was conducted on BC studies in Iran from 2000 to 2023, following PRISMA guidelines. Results: We analyzed 129 articles on BC in Iranian women, and finding six main areas. Conclusion: Iran's health system lacks an organized BC screening initiative, facing challenges like inadequate infrastructure, sociocultural barriers, unintegrated health insurance packages, and limited research on key indicators.
