Optimizing mobile mammography deployment in Oklahoma 2024: a two-step floating catchment area approach.
Article in Geospatial health, 2026. 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
This study assessed spatial accessibility to fixed mammography centres across Oklahoma State, USA using the Two-Step Floating Catchment Area (2SFCA) and the Enhanced Two-Step Floating Catchment Area (E2SFCA) methods to identify areas with limited or no access. For this analysis, we used data from the mammography facilities database of the US Food and Drug Administration verified by direct contact with the facility and the U.S. Census block group population and demographics for women aged 40 years and older. Analyses were stratified by urban areas; large rural areas; and small rural areas. Accessibility scores were calculated using the 2SFCA method with 30-minute drive times and the E2SFCA method with drive times of 10, 20 and 30 minutes weighted by distance decay. Block groups were categorized into quartiles based on accessibility scores. Among 940,994 eligible women, 10% lived in areas with no access. Small rural regions faced the greatest barriers. Spatial disparities were linked to racial and socioeconomic differences: non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native and non-Hispanic White populations were more likely to reside in noaccess zones, while Black and Hispanic populations clustered in high-access urban areas. Spatial analysis reveals significant rural disparities in mammography access. Mobile machines should prioritize underserved rural regions to improve equity.
