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 one of the most common cancer types in humans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an efficient method for the detection of human breast cancer. However, the efficacy of MRI in detecting breast cancer in the early stage requires to be improved. The present study investigated the diagnostic efficacy of a combination of MRI and detection of gene expression in patients with breast cancer in the early stage. The gene expression levels of Ki-67, BCL11A, FOXC1, HOXD13, PCDHGB7 and her-2 were used as an auxiliary diagnostic index for patients with breast cancer in the early stage. Higher expression levels of TPA and C2erbB22 were observed in tumor tissue obtained from diagnostic biopsy and determined by immunohistochemistry, which indicated a higher risk of breast cancer in a total of 84 participants. Diagnostic data revealed that combination MRI and detection of gene expression had a significantly higher diagnostic rate (66/84) in diagnosing breast cancer in an early stage compared with either MRI (78/360) or detection of gene expression (72/84; P<0.01). It was indicated that the combination of MRI and detection of gene expression had a higher diagnostic rate (94.5%) than either MRI (81.4%) or detection of gene expression (75.5%). Histological analysis confirmed the diagnosis determined by MRI and detection of gene expression. These results suggest that the combination of MRI and detection of gene expression may be a potential diagnostic method for assessing patients with early-stage breast cancer.
