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

aimThe aim of this study was to develop and implement the concept of fast-track surgery (FTS) for reconstructive breast surgery in patients with breast cancer (BC) to improve early and long-term results of treatment. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe study includes 749 patients with stage 1 to 3 BC. A total of 253 patients with BC got treatment according to FTS program and were included to the core group. Other 496 patients with BC (control group) were not included to the FTS program. Patients were treated from December 2010 to December 2014. All age groups were covered (18-70 years old).

resultsThere was a significant difference in the average length of hospital stay (LOS) which was 14.27 ± 7.00 days in the core group and 20.11 ± 7.70 days in the control group (

conclusionsThe study results allow us to recommend the concept of FTS for implementation in broad medical practice for breast reconstructive surgery in patients with BC. The FTS program was shown to be effective in all types of breast surgery, including immediate oncoplastic and reconstructive surgeries. The gradual reduction of LOS increased the number of surgeries in our department by 75% from 2008 till 2018.
