Age distribution and outcomes in patients undergoing breast cancer resection in Saudi Arabia. A single-institute study.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
objectivesIn response to rising incidence and mortality we aimed to investigate the demographic characteristics of patients with operative breast cancer in our region.
methodsWe performed a retrospective study of 224 patients who underwent surgery for breast cancer at King Saud University Medical City, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia between 2005 and 2012. Results: We identified a young population overall with a mean age of 48.8±12.2 years (range: 26-93 years). Survival rate were however similar across all age groups with a 10-year overall survival of 87%. Conclusion: Patients in our study were generally younger than those with breast cancer in Western nations. However, unlike Western countries, young age was not associated with worse outcomes.
