Review in European journal of breast health, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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.

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

Breast cancer is a heterogeneous disease. The purpose of adjuvant therapy for early-stage breast cancer is to provide maximum benefit with minimum side effects and not to under-treat or over-treat. The clinical progresses of patients with the same clinical and pathological characteristics who are given similar treatments may show major differences. This fact indicates that the prognostic and predictive factors that we have used until recent years for therapy selection are not really sufficient, we need new markers, every disease and every individual are unique and that treatment should be individualized. The gene expression profiling, which has come into clinical use in recent years, is beneficial in therapy selection for luminal breast cancer cases. A differentiation can be made among patients for whom only endocrine treatment would be adequate and those who should also receive chemotherapy in addition to endocrine treatment. Several new gene expression analysis studies targeted at gaining the ability to determine drug selection in chemotherapy, endocrine treatment and neo-adjuvant therapy are also currently ongoing. The staging system for new breast cancer that is to be published in the year 2018 also includes gene expression analyses within the prognostic panel and the stage changes depending on the result. The statement 'Treat the patient, not the disease.' is becoming increasingly entrenched in our clinical practice. This article briefly summarizes the gene expression profiles, which are validated and used in the selection of therapy for early-stage breast cancer.
