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.

Abstract

objectiveWe aimed to investigate the correlation of the perfusion parameters of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) with the molecular biological expression of breast infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC) in order to guide appropriate therapeutic advice and clinical outcome prediction. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn a prospective analysis of 67 patients with breast IDC, preoperative DCE-MRI and routine MRI images were obtained. The double-chamber model (extended Tofts model) was employed to calculate the perfusion parameters. Postoperative pathological immunohistochemistry was examined, including human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), cell nuclear-associated antigen (Ki-67), cytokeratin 5/6 (CK5/6), and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Statistical analysis was applied to explore the relationship between the perfusion parameters and the molecular biomarkers of breast cancer.

resultsA total of 67 lesions were included in our study. The mean maximum diameter of lesions was 4.48 ± 1.73 cm. Perfusion parameters had no correlation with tumor diameters (

conclusionDCE-MRI perfusion parameters can behave as a noninvasive tool to assess the molecular biological expression and the molecular subtypes of breast IDC. They may aid in predicting breast IDC invasiveness, metastasis, and prognosis.
