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

purposeBlack women with hormone receptor-positive (HR +) breast cancer are twice as likely as White women to have weakly HR + tumors (1-10% positive cells). Patients with weakly HR + tumors are less frequently prescribed ET and have 60% higher mortality than strongly HR + tumors (> 10% positive cells). We evaluated factors associated with ET prescription and self-reported use among Black women with HR + breast cancer.

methodsAmong 922 Detroit ROCS participants, we evaluated associations between demographics, socioeconomic status, and health, tumor, oncologist, and hospital characteristics and ET prescription intent and self-reported ET use. Logistic mixed-effects regression was used to account for oncologist and hospital group effects.

resultsOncologists intended to prescribe ET to 83.4% of participants (n = 769), of which 54.4% (n = 502) reported use. In multivariable models, participants with weakly HR + tumors were 90% less likely to be prescribed ET (OR = 0.10, p < 0.0001). Other significant characteristics of ET prescription included a BMI of 25-29.9 kg/m

conclusionIdentifying multilevel factors related to ET use may inform strategies to improve ET uptake and survival among Black women with HR + breast cancer.
