Identifying Biomarkers to Select Patients with Early Breast Cancer Suitable for Extended Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy.
Review in Breast care (Basel, Switzerland), 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Postmenopausal women with early oestrogen receptor-positive breast cancer who have received 5 years of endocrine therapy are at increased risk of developing a recurrence. An important clinical question is how to identify women who are at highest (or lowest) risk of a recurrence. The use of prognostic biomarkers allows individualised breast cancer therapy but correct identification of patients who will benefit most from extended endocrine therapy is essential. Several multigene assays have been developed to determine the likelihood of overall recurrence but so far none exist specifically for the prediction of late recurrence. Recent results from large clinical trials have shown that biomarker assays that include clinical information in their tests might be useful to predict and risk stratify patients for late recurrence. However, further research is needed to specifically offer multigene assays for the identification of late recurrence and thus justify routine use of these tests in the clinical setting.
