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

backgroundIn the United States, Latina women have delayed mammography utilization, yet it is unknown how use varies among patients who receive primary care from community health centers who serve a disproportionately high number of Latina patients.

methodsWe used data (2013-2022) from a nationwide network of primary care organizations. The main outcome of interest, mammography among females over the age of 50, was analyzed in two different ways: (1) being up to date on mammography and (2) time to first mammogram after age 50. We used covariate-adjusted generalized estimating equations logistic regression and Cox proportional hazard models to estimate the association between nativity (US-born versus Foreign-born, region of origin, and country of origin) and mammography.

resultsAmong the 24,579 included patients, being up to date with mammography varied by nativity, with US-born Latinas having 1.55 (95% CI: 1.27, 1.90) and Foreign-born Latinas having 1.85 (95% CI: 1.64, 2.10) times the odds of being up to date compared to Non-Hispanic White (NHW) females. Foreign-born Latinas, regardless of region or country of origin, had a higher prevalence of being up to date compared to US-born NHW and US-born Latinas. Latinas from the Caribbean and Central America had the highest prevalence of being up to date, with those from South America having the lowest. Finally, US-born Latinas and Foreign-born Latinas had a shorter time to first mammography.

conclusionUS-born and Foreign-born Latinas had greater mammography use than NHW patients highlighting the important role of community health centers in preventive cancer care for Latinas.
