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

backgroundEndocrine therapy with a standard duration of 5 years is well known as an effective treatment for endocrine-sensitive breast cancer. SUMMARY: In the adjuvant setting this treatment reduces the 15-year mortality rates by about 30 and 40% with tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitor, respectively. The well-known long-term recurrence risk of luminal cancers led to multiple trials examining the benefit of extended endocrine treatment for up to 15 years. Additional benefit with extended therapy was seen for patients with high recurrence risk. Also, additional ovarian suppression for premenopausal women exhibited a significant benefit for patients at higher risk. KEY MESSAGES: The data of the last years will be summarized and discussed, also considering the side effects of the different treatment options.
