Body Composition, Metabolism, and Inflammation in Breast Cancer Survivors and Healthy Age-matched Controls: A Cross-Sectional Analysis.
Article in International journal of exercise science, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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.
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
Breast cancer survivors (BCS) experience treatment induced alterations in body composition including the loss of bone mineral density (BMD) and lean soft tissue (LST). These changes can affect the metabolism and the systemic inflammatory environment of BCS.
objectiveTo evaluate the differences in body composition, resting energy expenditure (REE), and inflammation in BCS and age-matched women without a prior cancer diagnosis (control).
methodsSeventeen postmenopausal BCS (stages 0-III; age: 59 ± 9 years) and 18 (59 ± 6 years) controls had their total body and regional (lumbar spine, femur, and forearm) BMD, LST and fat mass measured via DXA. REE was assessed via 35 minutes of indirect calorimetry. Serum concentrations of human C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured via ELISA to assess inflammation. Data were analyzed via ANOVAs.
resultsThere were no significant differences between BCS and controls in body composition, metabolic measures and CRP. However, when REE was adjusted for LST, the BCS had a significantly greater REE when compared to the controls ( DISCUSSION: Our findings suggest that BCS that were on average five years into survivorship appear to have similar body composition, and CRP as age-matched women without a prior cancer diagnosis, but significantly different relative REE.
