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.
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
Bone is the most common site of metastatic spread in patients with breast cancer. Patients with bone-only metastasis (BOM) are a unique group. The aim of the present study was to compare the clinicopathological characteristics, survival and prognostic factors of patients with BOM and non-BOM. The clinical data of 1,290 patients with metastatic breast cancer treated at the Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital (Tianjin, China) between January 2008 and December 2017 were reviewed. The clinical data were divided into a BOM group (n=208 cases) and a non-BOM group (n=1,082 cases). Patients with BOM had longer disease-free survival, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared with patients in the non-BOM group. The hormone receptor (HR) status and number of metastases were significant influencing factors of PFS in the BOM group. Furthermore, the HR status, location of bone metastasis and number of bone metastases were significantly associated with OS of patients in the BOM group. Age at diagnosis of metastasis, HR status and tumor stage were significantly associated with OS in the non-BOM group. In the BOM group, patients with HR
