Breast cancer and income loss in Denmark: heterogeneous outcomes and longitudinal effects.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Income loss after breast cancer is an important area of research, but long-term impacts and heterogeneous effects are understudied. Here, we measure the effect of breast cancer on personal and household equivalized income of females in Denmark from 2000-2018 using Danish register data. We perform a cohort study and match on age, income, employment, comorbidities, healthcare utilization, and other socioeconomic and demographic variables at cohort entry, to investigate impacts across subpopulations over 10 years. We also perform an event study difference-in-difference analysis over the same period. Our study finds personal income loss averaging €7138 over 10 years in the non-retired population. The working population, students, and those in worse health suffer disproportionate loss. Household income losses are smaller and recover within 10 years. Overall, the Danish economic protections are effective in mitigating long-term economic impact of breast cancer, though there is room for improvement in protection of the most vulnerable.
