Usefulness of Staging Chest CT in Breast Cancer: Evaluating Diagnostic Yield of Chest CT According to the Molecular Subtype and Clinical Stage.

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
The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical utility of staging chest CT in breast cancer by evaluating diagnostic yield (DY) of chest CT in detection of metastasis, according to the molecular subtype and clinical stage. This retrospective study included 840 patients with 855 breast cancers from January 2017 to December 2018. The number of patients in clinical stage 0/I, II, III and IV were 457 (53.5%), 298 (34.9%), 92 (10.8%) and 8 (0.9%), respectively. Molecular subtype was identified in 841 cancers and there were 709 (84.3%) luminal type, 55 (6.5%) human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-enriched type and 77 (9.2%) triple-negative (TN) type. The DYs in clinical stage 0/I, cII, cIII and cIV were 0.2% (1/457), 1.7% (5/298), 4.3% (4/92) and 100.0% (8/8), respectively. The DYs in luminal type, HER2-enriched type and TN type were 1.7% (12/709), 3.6% (2/55) and 2.6% (2/77), respectively. Clinical stage was associated with the DY (
