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

The 21-gene recurrence score (RS) assay is prognostic and predictive for hormone receptor (HR)+/HER2-/node- breast cancer (BC) patients. However, its clinical value in node + patients hasn't been elucidated. HR+/HER2-/pN1 patients operated in Comprehensive Breast Health Center, Shanghai Ruijin Hospital from January 2014 to December 2018, with available RS results were retrospectively included. Clinico-pathological characteristics were compared. Adjuvant chemotherapy recommendations pre-/post- RS assay and actual usage were analyzed. A total of 303 patients were included, with 59, 178, 66 RS < 18, 18-30 and ≥ 31. Age (P < 0.001), comorbidity (P = 0.013), and RS category (P < 0.001) were independently associated with chemotherapy recommendation. Compared with low RS patients, those with intermediate (OR 6.58, 95% CI 2.37-18.31, P < 0.001) or high (OR 54.14, 95% CI 3.77-776.54, P = 0.003) RS were more likely to be recommended with chemotherapy. RS independently influence chemotherapy decision in postmenopausal population as well. Chemotherapy recommendation changed for 9.57% patients after RS assay. Patient adherence rate to chemotherapy recommendation was 94.72% (287/303). The 21-gene RS independently influenced chemotherapy recommendation in pN1 BC patients, which could provide additional information to guide chemotherapy decision with relatively good treatment adherence rate.
