Relation of risk of contralateral breast cancer to the interval since the first primary tumour.
Article in British journal of cancer, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
backgroundThere is no consensus on how to separate contralateral breast cancer (CBC) occurring as distant spread of the primary breast cancer (BC) from an independent CBC.
methodsWe used standardised incidence ratios (SIRs) to analyse the variations in the risk of CBC over time among 6629 women with BC diagnosed between 1954 and 1983. To explore the most appropriate cutoff to separate the two types of CBC, we analysed the deviance between models including different cutoff points as compared with the basal model with no cutoff date. We also performed a prognostic study through a Cox model.
resultsThe SIR was much higher during the first 2 years of follow-up than afterwards. The best cutoff appeared to be 2 years. The risk of early CBC was linked to tumour spread and the risk of late CBC was linked to age and to the size of the tumour. Radiotherapy was not selected by the model either for early or late CBC risk.
conclusionA clearer pattern of CBC risk might appear if studies used a similar cutoff time after the initial BC.
