Tumor grade and molecular subtypes on local control in breast cancer radiotherapy: Does fractionation really matter? A retrospective control study group.

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
The aim of this current study was to assess whether the tumour grade and molecular subtypes have influenced local control in the whole breast hypofractionated radiotherapy (HRT) over standard radiotherapy (SRT) in early breast node negative cancer patients by a retrospective control group study. Data of 215 patients treated with hypofractionated radiotherapy at our institution from 2008 to 2011 were prospectively collected and then compared with 215 pts treated with SRT in a control group study. The local relapse free survival (LRFS) in both arms was compared on the basis of variables defined by tumour grade (Nottingham Grading System), and Molecular subtypes. Kaplan-Meier method was applied to estimate the LRFS in both groups. Chi-squared and univariate Cox proportional hazards model were conducted for all variables in both groups to assess the impact on local control. Statistical significance was assumed at P < .05. Statistical significant variables at univariate analysis were then included in multivariate Cox proportional hazards model. The median follow up duration was
