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

backgroundThis study aims to explore the association between shear wave elastography parameters (SWEPs) and clinicopathological characteristics (CPCs) in breast cancer (BC).

methodsThe electronic databases of Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Allied and Complementary Medicine Database, WANGFANG, VIP, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure will be used to search for studies dated from database inception to the present. No limitations of language and publication status will be applied in this study. Only case-controlled study and randomized controlled trials investigating the association between SWEP and CPC in BC will be included. Cochrane risk of bias will be used to assess study quality for each included study. RevMan 5.3 software will be utilized for statistical analysis.

resultsThis study will provide accurate data to appraise the association between SWEP and CPC in BC.

conclusionThis study will summarize the most recent evidence to improve our understanding of the association between SWEP and CPC in BC. OSF REGISTRATION NUMBER:: osf.io/vmkwu.
