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

Objective: To introduce a contralateral mastoplasty in breast reconstruction with prosthesis after breast cancer surgery in order to gain bilateral breasts symmetry. Methods: Between January 2016 and June 2018, 11 female patients with breast cancer were treated, aged 34-64 years old (mean, 49.6 years). There were 5 cases in left side and 6 cases in right side. There were 3 cases of invasive carcinoma and 8 cases of intraductal carcinoma. The diameter of tumor was 0.2-4.1 cm (mean, 2.5 cm). The disease duration ranged from 1 to 15 months (mean, 6 months). According to Regnault grading criteria, there were 7 cases of mild breast ptosis and 4 cases of moderate breast ptosis. Simple nipple-sparing mastectomy and reconstruction using prosthesis of the affected side, and folding and lifting of the nipple-areolar complex of the healthy side were performed. Results: The operation time was 144-188 minutes (mean, 158 minutes). The hospital stay was 6-9 days (mean, 7.5 days). Postoperatively, poor incision healing occurred in 1 case and healed after symptomatic treatment. The other incisions healed well and no surgical-related complications occurred. All patients were followed up 6-30 months (mean, 16 months). At 3 months after operation, the expert group adopted the self-made rating scale to evaluate the bilateral breasts symmetry, and the score was 8-10 (mean, 8.9). The patients were evaluated for their satisfaction according to the self-made score scale, and the score was 8-10 (mean, 9.1). Conclusion: After immediate breat reconstruction with prosthesis after breast cancer surgery, the satisfied bilateral breasts appearances and symmetry can be obtained by contralateral mastoplasty.
