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

objectivesHispanic populations are underrepresented in epidemiologic studies. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using the Florida Cancer Registry to enlist Hispanic women with breast cancer for population-based cancer research.

methodsFrom September 2023 to April 2024, we recruited adult (age ≥ 20 years) Hispanic/Latina women diagnosed with breast cancer to a study examining the quality of life among Hispanic breast cancer survivors. Following the state-mandated patient recruitment procedures, potential participants were contacted via mail to gauge their willingness to participate. Interested participants completed the survey via mail or online in their preferred language.

resultsOut of 3398 potentially eligible women per the Florida Cancer Registry, 1385 were contactable, and 1234 were determined to be eligible. Of those eligible, 715 agreed to participate and 519 refused. As of October 2024, 408 women completed the survey, leading to 41% contact rate, 89% eligibility rate, 58% recruitment rate, and 57% survey completion rate. Compared to the sampling frame, those contactable and eligible were younger, diagnosed recently at a younger age, and diagnosed with early-stage diseases. Compared to eligible women who did not participate, those who participated were younger, diagnosed at a younger age, and completed surgery and chemotherapy. There were no differences in other characteristics, including Hispanic origin.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated the feasibility of using the Florida Cancer Data System (FCDS) state-mandated patient recruitment procedure to recruit a representative and culturally diverse Hispanic population in cancer survivorship research. However, the procedures and surveys need better strategies to improve contact rates and survey completion rates.
