Characteristics and clinical outcome of pT1a-b node-negative breast cancer.
Article in Northern clinics of Istanbul, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTumor size, along with other clinicopathological characteristics, has a prognostic role in breast cancer. Recurrence risk tends to rise as tumor size increases. Early T-stage portends a good prognosis. We aimed to investigate the recurrence-free interval rates of T1abN0 group of early breast cancer.
methodsPatients diagnosed with pT1a and T1b, lymph node metastasis-negative breast cancer were included in the study. Clinicopathologic characteristics including recurrence, distant metastasis, and final status of the patients were obtained retrospectively from the patient files.
resultsA total of 84 patients included. Twenty-six patients (31%) had T1a and 58 patients (69%) had T1b tumors. The 5-year distant relapse-free survival (DRFS) rate of T1ab tumors was 95.2%. The DRFS rate of T1a tumors was 96.2%, while the rate of T1b tumors was 94.8% (p=0.555). The 5-year RFS rate of T1ab tumors was 90.5%. The RFS rate of T1a tumors was 84.6%, whereas the rate of T1b tumors was 93.1% (p=0.359). The 5-year DRFS rate of hormone receptor positive group was 97%, Her-2 positive group was 81.8%, and triple negative group was 100% (p=0.041). The 5-year RFS rate of the hormone receptor positive group was 97%, Her-2 positive group was 72.7%, and triple negative group was 57.1% (p=0.001).
conclusionThe results of the study provided that both T1a and T1b tumors have a good and similar prognosis.
