Review in Surgical oncology clinics of North America, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02995772 (Preoperative Neoadjuvant Hormonal Therapy and Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Stage IIIB and IV Breast Cancer Patients in Dharmais National Cancer Center Hospital, Indonesia), which is not on this map. Cited by 62 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Neoadjuvant systemic therapy in breast cancer treatment was initially utilized for inoperable disease. However, several randomized prospective studies have demonstrated comparable survival with adjuvant chemotherapy in early-stage, operable breast cancer while also decreasing tumor size facilitating breast conservation without significant increases in local recurrence. Response to therapy can predict outcome, with improved survival associated with pathologic complete response (pCR). Triple negative and HER2-positive subtypes show increased pCR rates. A multidisciplinary approach is necessary with neoadjuvant treatment. This can improve rates of breast conservation, provide insights into tumor biology and predict patient outcomes.
