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

backgroundImmediate implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) is rarely performed in patients with locally advanced breast carcinoma (LABC). It has not been considered the best indication, and the literature is scarce about this subject. PATIENTS AND

methodsA retrospective matched case-control study was performed in patients with LABC submitted to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT). Forty-eight patients undergoing immediate IBBR were matched with 96 patients undergoing conventional mastectomy. Patients were matched according to 2 models based on prognostic characteristics prior to NCT and response to NCT. Local recurrence and disease-free survival were compared between the groups. In the IBBR group, local complications were evaluated.

resultsIn all, 196 patients were evaluated. The mean tumour size of IBBR patients was 5.8 cm. 83.3% (180/196) of the patients had clinical stage III. At a mean follow-up of 74.7 months, the local recurrence rate was 6.2% (3/48), 15.6% (15/96) and 13.7% (13/95) in the IBBR, model 1 and model 2 groups, respectively (

conclusionImmediate IBBR may be a safe and effective surgical procedure in selected patients with LABC.
