Axillary evaluation is not warranted in patients preoperatively diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ by core needle biopsy.
Article in Cancer medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04862429 (Studio BoCCE), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.

Abstract
backgroundPatients diagnosed with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) by core needle biopsy (CNB) have a great chance of upstaging to invasive cancer. Positive axillary status can be found in these patients. This study sought to identify clinicopathological factors associated with upstaging and axillary metastasis in patients preoperatively diagnosed with DCIS by CNB. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis study identified 604 patients (cT1-3N0M0) with preoperative diagnosis of pure DCIS by CNB who had undergone axillary evaluation from August 2006 to December 2015 at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (FUSCC). Predictors of upstaging and axillary lymph nodes metastasis were analyzed, respectively.
resultsOf all 604 patients, 121 (20.03%) and 193 (31.95%) patients were upstaged to DCIS with microinvasion (DCISM) and invasive breast cancer (IBC). Positive axillary lymph nodes were identified in 41 (6.79%) patients. Predictors of upstaging included tumor size on ultrasonography (>2 cm) (OR 1.786, P = .002) and ER+HER2+ status (OR 1.874, P = .022) in multivariate analysis. Factors associated with axillary lymph nodes metastasis included tumor size on pathology (OR 2.336, P = .038) and number of lesions (OR 3.354, P = .039) in multivariate analysis. In addition, upstaging on final pathology had a significant influence on axillary lymph nodes status (P < .001).
conclusionAxillary evaluation was recommended in patients with larger tumor size (>2 cm), multifocal lesions or ER+HER2+ status. Despite of a 51.98% upstaging rate, the rate of axillary metastasis in these patients was relatively low, supporting the omission of axillary evaluation in selected patients with low risk of upstaging or axillary metastasis.
