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

Objective: We explored the association of age, obesity and marital status with Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category distribution in women, using retrospective mammography data from a medical system, as only a few studies have investigated this association. Materials and methods: This retrospective study collected the first left-lateral and right-lateral mammography data of 4,165 and 4,213 women from 2,011 to 2020 in a medical system, respectively, to be analyzed. We examined the association of age, body mass index (BMI), and marital status with BI-RADS categories using the Chi-square test and multinomial logistic regression. Results: The proportion of BI-RADS category 0 decreased with age, but the proportion of BI-RADS categories 4 and 5 increased with age. Women aged >69 years had a higher proportion of BI-RADS categories 4 and 5 [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) = 1.34 for left-lateral mammography and aOR = 1.29 for right-lateral mammography data] than women aged 45-69 years. Overweight was associated with the rate of the proportion of BI-RADS categories 4 and 5 of the left-lateral breast (aOR = 1.26, Conclusions: Age >69 years, being overweight, and being separated/divorced/widowed were the factors associated with BI-RADS categories 4 and 5 of women who underwent mammography.
