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

introductionModerate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) after breast cancer diagnosis is associated with improved survivorship. However, differences in MVPA by race among breast cancer survivors are not well described in population-based studies.

methodsWe analyzed data from Carolina Breast Cancer Study Phase 3 (n = 2994, 50% Black) participants to evaluate the trajectory of MVPA from pre-diagnosis to 18-month post-diagnosis. Participants self-reported MVPA at baseline (pre-diagnosis) and 6- and 18-month post-diagnosis and were classified as having any MVPA (> 0 min/week) or no MVPA. Associations between MVPA and demographic, social, and clinical variables were estimated using multivariable logistic regression.

resultsAt baseline, 84.0% of participants reported any MVPA pre-diagnosis, which dropped to 55.4% at 6-month post-diagnosis, then rebounded to 85.1% by 18-month post-diagnosis. Among those who had no MVPA pre-diagnosis, 32.5% and 71.0% became active at 6- and 18-month post-diagnosis, respectively. Higher income [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.33, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.02, 1.74) > $30K vs. < 15K], lower body mass index [aOR = 1.30, 95% CI (1.00, 1.73) < 25 vs. > 30], low area deprivation [aOR = 1.35, 95% CI (1.08, 1.67) vs. high], high area assets [aOR = 1.54, 95% CI (1.23, 1.93) vs. low], and stage I breast cancer [aOR = 1.72, 95% CI (1.22, 2.43) vs. 3 or 4] were associated with any MVPA at 18-month post-diagnosis.

conclusionWe identified several demographic and social correlates of any MVPA at 18-month post-diagnosis, and together with established clinical correlates (such as late disease), these factors may contribute to breast cancer disparities.
