Diagnostic potential of self-breast examination as an adjunct to mammography in females presenting with a breast lump: A review.
Article in Bioinformation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality among women worldwide, with early detection playing a critical role in improving survival and quality of life. Mammography remains the cornerstone of breast cancer screening; however, its limited accessibility in many regions necessitates supportive diagnostic approaches. Self-breast examination (SBE) offers a simple, cost-effective, and empowering means for women to recognize early breast changes. When used as an adjunct to mammography, SBE can facilitate earlier presentation, particularly in younger women and resource-limited settings. Promoting awareness and proper education in SBE has the potential to strengthen breast cancer detection strategies and reduce diagnostic delays.
