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

Morphological features of right- and left-sided breast cancer (BC) have been rarely studied. Ki-67 is an independent predictive marker for a local relapse, and for overall and disease-free survival. In previous literature, lateral differences in Ki-67 in BC have not been reported. Using immunohistochemical analysis, the biopsy material of 500 patients was investigated. Four BC parameters were investigated: The expression levels of the estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), Ki-67 and Her-2-neu. A comparative analysis of Ki-67 in groups with right- and left-sided BC was performed. Lateral differences in Ki-67 in three age groups, ≤49, 50-59 and ≥60 years, were assessed. A higher expression of Ki-67 corresponded with right-sided BC (r=-0.08; P=0.046). Correlation of Ki-67 with the age of the patient was characteristic only for right-sided BC (r=-0.28; P<0.001). The comparative analysis revealed that tumors from patients with right-sided BC aged ≥60 years exhibited a lower Ki-67 index compared with tumors from patients aged ≤49 (P=0.003) and 50-59 years (P=0.000013). In left-sided BC, the Ki-67 in the different age intervals revealed no significant difference. On performing an assessment of lateral differences for the different age intervals, it was established that the Ki-67 index of right-sided BC was significantly higher compared with the left-sided BC in two of the age groups, ≤49 (P=0.038) and 50-59 years (P=0.047). In the ≥60 years group, lateral differences in Ki-67 were not revealed (P=0.4). The analysis of lateral differences in Ki-67 in tumors of various receptor profiles revealed significant differences in Ki-67 of the right- and left-sided BC under ER
