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

The tumour-to-breast volume ratio (TBVR) is a metric that may help surgical decision making. In this retrospective Ethics-Committee-approved study, we assessed the correlation between magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-derived TBVR and the performed surgery. The TBVR was obtained using a fully manual method for the segmentation of the tumour volume (TV) and a growing region semiautomatic method for the segmentation of the whole breast volume (WBV). Two specifically-trained residents (R1 and R2) independently segmented T1-weighted datasets of 51 cancer cases in 51 patients (median age 57 years). The intraobserver and interobserver TBVR reproducibility were calculated. Mann-Whitney
