Plasma Nucleosomes in Primary Breast Cancer.
Article in Cancers, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
When cells die, nucleosomes composed of DNA and histone proteins enter the extracellular space and end eventually in the circulation. In plasma, they might serve as a nonspecific marker of cell death, potentially useful for noninvasive monitoring of tumor dynamics. The aim of this study was to analyze circulating nucleosomes in relation to patient/tumor characteristics and prognosis in primary breast cancer. This study included 92 patients with breast cancer treated with surgery for whom plasma isolated was available in the biobank. Plasma nucleosomes were detected in samples taken in the morning on the day of surgery using Cell Death Detection ELISA kit with anti-histone and anti-DNA antibodies. Circulating nucleosomes were positively associated with the systemic inflammatory index (SII), but not with other patient/tumor characteristics. Patients with high SII in comparison to low SII had higher circulating nucleosomes (by 59%,
