Subtypes of luminal breast carcinoma according to the Saint Gallen Consensus in a group of Venezuelan patients
Article in Biomedica : revista del Instituto Nacional de Salud, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Breast cancer is the most frequent malignancy in women worldwide. Different intrinsic subtypes have different prognoses and their prevalence varies significantly according to the criteria established in the Saint Gallen Consensus. Objective: To classify the luminal subtypes of breast carcinoma according to Saint Gallen 2009, 2011, 2013, and 2015 consensuses in a group of Venezuelan patients. Materials and methods: We conducted a retrospective study in 209 patients with infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast followed up at the Institute of Oncology “Dr. Miguel Pérez Carreno” in Valencia, Venezuela. Results: The distribution of the luminal A and B subtypes changed after the reclassification of the cases according to 2011, 2013, and 2015 Saint Gallen Consensuses. The luminal B subtype was the most common in the study series. Conclusions: With the use of a classification based on the latest Saint Gallen criteria we identified more luminal B tumors. This could contribute to selecting those patients who can avoid adjuvant chemotherapy and/or benefit from the adjuvant hormonal therapy in clinical practice.
