Quality-of-life issues in patients with ductal carcinoma in situ.
Review in Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Monographs, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) as we know it today is a clinical entity that is primarily discovered through the finding of microscopic calcifications on a screening mammogram. Asymptomatic women who are found to have DCIS receive treatments that are similar to women with invasive breast cancer and experience substantial psychological distress in spite of having an excellent prognosis and normal life expectancy. More research is needed to determine the best way to communicate with women about this condition and to match the extent of treatment with the risk of serious future disease. Clinical and research efforts should focus on reducing the anxiety and psychological distress associated with the diagnosis of DCIS.
