Preoperative assessment of prognostic factors in breast cancer.
Review in Journal of clinical pathology, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 25 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
The adoption of preoperative diagnostic strategies involving fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) or core biopsy is well established, allowing the planning of operating lists and bed occupancy and patient involvement in therapeutic management. In addition to diagnosis, however, pathologists are increasingly being asked to provide pathological prognostic information from preoperative samples. This leader describes techniques for predicting prognosis and response to treatment on these specimens and some of the problems inherent in the determination of prognosis on small samples. For example, although histological grade can be assessed relatively reliably on either core or FNAC samples, the evaluation of tumour type (which includes an overall assessment of the architecture of a given tumour) may be less reliable on small preoperative samples. Other well recognised histological prognostic factors, such as vascular channel invasion or tumour size, cannot be determined accurately on small preoperative samples. For those patients who might benefit from neoadjuvant treatment, predicting the response to such treatments--for example, by the assessment of oestrogen receptor status--can readily be performed on either core biopsy or FNAC. In the future, other molecular markers such as C-erbB-2 might also prove beneficial in predicting response to newly developed treatments.
