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.

The traditional method of surgery is to remove a woman's breast completely, which has a negative impact on her work and life. Today, women have a fiery pursuit to maintain their perfect figure, which has forced breast surgeon to find a new surgical approach to maintain the shape of the breast after surgery.

methodsThis study systematically analyzed and summarized the incision design and repair of glandular defects in early-stage breast cancer patients by oncoplastic breast techniques. By summarizing the methods of oncoplastic breast surgery (OBS) in different quadrants, it could help beginners to master this technology more quickly, so as to provide better help for breast cancer patients.

resultsA total of 216 breast cancer patients who underwent OBS from January 2016 to June 2020 at the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University were included in this study. In patients treated with the volume-displacement method and the volume-replacement method, 92.6% and 86.2% of patients achieved excellent breast shape, respectively.
