Trends in Medicare payments within the first year of cervical cancer diagnosis, 2010-2019.
Article in JNCI cancer spectrum, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Assessing Medicare payment trends for cervical cancer care is important to mitigate the financial impact on Medicare. This multiyear cross-sectional study included 65 years and older cervical cancer patients in SEER registries diagnosed between 2010 and 2019 who had continuous Part A and B Medicare coverage at least 6 months before diagnosis and at least within the first year of diagnosis and were not enrolled in any Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) in this duration. The main outcomes were trends in total and service-specific mean monthly Medicare payments within the first year of a cervical cancer diagnosis. This study included 2147 cervical cancer patients. The mean Medicare payments increased from $8300 in 2010 to $8520 in 2019, largely driven by a statistically significant increase in outpatient services costs, from $1361 to $2056 (AAPC = 5.45, 95% CI = 1.38 to 9.67, P = .008). These findings highlight the need for policy actions to mitigate cervical-cancer-related financial impact on Medicare.
