A Cost Decision Model Supporting Treatment Strategy Selection in BRCA1/2 Mutation Carriers in Breast Cancer.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 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
In this paper, a cost decision-making model that compares the healthcare costs for diverse treatment strategies is built for BRCA-mutated women with breast cancer. Moreover, this model calculates the cancer treatment costs that could potentially be prevented, if the treatment strategy with the lowest total cost, along the entire lifetime of the patient, is chosen for high-risk women with breast cancer. The benchmark of the healthcare costs for diverse treatment strategies is selected in the presence of uncertainty, i.e., considering, throughout the lifetime of the patient, the risks and complications that may arise in each strategy and, therefore, the costs associated with the management of such events. Our results reveal a clear economic advantage of adopting the cost decision-making model for benchmarking the healthcare costs for various treatment strategies for BRCA-mutated women with breast cancer. The cost savings were higher when all breast cancer patients underwent counseling and genetic testing before deciding on any diagnostic-therapeutic path, with a probability of obtaining savings of over 75%.
