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 registryThe 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.

6 · The paper itselfAbstract
backgroundWe evaluated county-level variations in racial and/or ethnic disparities in breast cancer mortality rates across the United States over a 20-year period.
methodsValidated small-area estimation models were used to calculate breast cancer mortality rates by age and race and/or ethnicity among females across all United States counties from 2000 to 2019. The estimates were corrected for misreporting of race and/or ethnicity on death certificates and age-standardized to the 2010 United States Census.
resultsAge-standardized national breast cancer mortality rates declined between 2000 and 2019, from 33.6 (95% uncertainty interval = 33.4-33.9) to 24.8 (24.6-25.0) deaths per 100 000 females. However, there were variations in breast cancer mortality rates across racial and/or ethnic populations at the county level. For instance, 243 of 1478 counties showed increasing breast cancer mortality rates from 2000 to 2019 among Latina females aged <50 years (absolute increase [median] = 0.23 deaths per 100 000; maximum = 1.0). County-level patterns for American Indian/Alaska Native females aged 50-74 years showed increasing breast cancer mortality rates across 108 of 474 counties (median = 4.4 per 100 000; max = 17.5). The largest county-level increases were seen among American Indian/Alaska Native (184 of 474 counties; median = 15.2 per 100 000; max = 124.0) and Asian (589 of 667 counties; median = 14.1 per 100 000, max = 41.0) females aged 75+ years.
conclusionsDespite a substantial decrease in overall breast cancer mortality rates across all female populations combined in the United States, there were significant county-level variations in breast cancer mortality rates by race and/or ethnicity.
