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

objectiveTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) accounts for 15-25% of breast cancers. It is increasingly recognized that TNBC is a motley disease. TNBC and basal-like (BL) subtype are different molecular classes of breast cancer with a high degree of overlap. However, a smaller fraction lacks the expression of basal markers in spite of being TNBC and is called non-basal-like (NBL). The aim of this study is to assess the clinicopathological features in TNBC and compare its BL and NBL subtypes.

resultsTNBC constituted 22% of all breast cancers. The family history of cancer was observed to be significantly associated with stage (

conclusionBoth BL and NBL subtypes occur in equal proportions; hence, basalness and triple negativity are not synonyms. Though BL and NBL are prognostically similar, BL subtype shows a trend towards slightly shorter DFS and OS compared to NBL.
