1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 aim of this study was to investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis value for molecular subtypes of low-grade breast carcinoma (LGBC) compared with grade one invasive ductal carcinoma-not otherwise specified (G1-IDC-NOS). A retrospective review of 688 LGBC and 1 037 G1-IDC-NOS patients was classified into four different molecular subtypes based on the IHC-based definitions for ER, PR, and c-erbB-2. In LGBC, lymph node metastasis, the percentage of III/IV TNM stages, the expression of Ki-67 and p53 in luminal A subtype were lower than in other subtypes (P<0.01). In addition, the variations of Ki-67 and p53 expression were observed in different subtypes of G1-IDC-NOS (P<0.01). Compared with G1-IDC-NOS, LGBC has higher proportion in the ER positive, PR positive, HER-2 negative, luminal A subtype, Ki-67 negative, and lymph nodes negative group (P<0.01). Furthermore, the overall survival of luminal A and luminal B is higher than triple-negative and HER-2/neu subtype both in LGBC and G1-IDC-NOS in 262 LGBC and 330 G1-IDC-NOS patients with proper follow-up. The classification of molecular subtype together with clinicopathologic factors can significantly improve the traditional prognosticators in predicting outcome for LGBC and G1-IDC-NOS. And it may contribute to guide the treatment for LGBC and G1-IDC-NOS in the future.
