First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether sending a culturally and linguistically tailored reminder letter could increase breast cancer screening among women aged 50-69 who had never been screened before. About 8,000 women were split into two groups: one got the standard invitation only, the other got an extra personalized reminder. The researchers measured how many women got a mammogram within 40 days, and whether the effect was different for women with lower versus higher socioeconomic status.
