Knowledge, attitude, and practice among non-breast cancer women towards breast cancer screening with a focus on economic factors.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Although breast cancer incidence and mortality are rising globally and China has a screening programme, participation remains low due to poor awareness and financial barriers. This cross-sectional study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of breast cancer screening among 964 non-breast cancer women, averaging 29.79 years old, through web-based questionnaires and face-to-face interviews. The knowledge, attitude and practice scores were 7.04 ± 4.19 (possible range: 0-20), 25.37 ± 6.09 (possible range: 10-50), and 15.07 ± 2.84 (possible range: 0-20), respectively. Key barriers included embarrassment (65.45%), fear of radiation (49.48%), and treatment costs (70.34%). Structural equation modeling indicated that income had a direct effect on both knowledge (β = 0.36, P = 0.010) and attitude (β = 1.34, P < 0.001). The logistic regression analysis found that identifying as "housewife" (OR = 2.87, 95%CI: 1.11-7.37, P = 0.029) and having no medical insurance (OR = 3.19, 95%CI: 1.13-9.04, P = 0.028) were significantly associated with unwillingness to undergo breast cancer screening. In conclusion, this study shows that there is a significant gap in KAP regarding breast cancer screening among women in China, particularly among low-income groups. To improve screening rates, it is crucial to address these barriers, enhance knowledge, and provide better risk assessment resources.
