Estimated health outcomes of breast cancer screening in the national breast and cervical cancer early detection program by race/ethnicity.
Article in Cancer causes & control : CCC, 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
purposeTo estimate the number of screenings received, life-years (LYs) saved, and number of screenings per LY saved per woman who participated in the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) (Program) compared with those who did not participate (no Program).
methodsWe developed a time-to-event simulation model to compare the outcomes of women participating in the Program vs. no Program, categorized by race/ethnicity. Model input parameters included data from the Program's minimum data elements, United States Cancer Statistics, National Health Interview Survey, and published literature. The Program's impact was calculated as the difference in LYs between the Program and no Program using data from 2010 to 2019.
resultsAmong 1 million women of all races/ethnicities who participated in the NBCCEDP in the last 10 years, 457,152 (standard deviation [SD]: 848) received more screenings than those who did not participate. These participants saved an average of 0.027 LYs per woman screened. In addition, we estimated that about 17 screenings would be required to save an additional 1 LY per woman screened in the Program compared with no Program. Per woman screened by race/ethnicity, non-Hispanic Black women had the highest estimated 0.075 LYs saved, followed by Hispanic women with 0.025 LYs, non-Hispanic White with 0.014 LYs, and non-Hispanic American Indian/Alaska Native and Asian/Pacific Islander had the least health outcome with 0.011 LYs.
conclusionThe reported findings underscore the importance of providing preventive health services to populations that might not otherwise have access to these services.
