Predicting short- to long-term breast cancer risk from longitudinal mammographic screening history.
Article in NPJ breast cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Breast cancer (BC) risk assessment aims to enhance individualized screening and prevention strategies. While recent deep learning (DL) models based on mammography have shown promise in short-term risk prediction, they primarily rely on single-time-point (STP) exams, ignoring temporal changes in breast tissue from sequence exams. We present the Multi-Time Point Breast Cancer Risk Model (MTP-BCR), a novel DL approach that integrates traditional risk factors and longitudinal mammography data to capture subtle tissue changes indicative of future malignancy. Using a large in-house dataset with 171,168 mammograms from 9133 women, MTP-BCR achieved superior performance in 10-year risk prediction, with an AUC of 0.80 (95% CI, 0.78-0.82) at the patient level, outperforming STP-based and traditional risk models. External validation on the CSAW-CC dataset confirmed its robustness. Further analysis demonstrates the advantages of the MTP-BCR method in diverse populations. MTP-BCR also excels in risk stratification and offers heatmaps to enhance clinical interpretability.
