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

backgroundThe cumulative risk of distant recurrence of hormone receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer in the past 20 years has ranged from 22% to 52% after 5 years of endo-therapy. The TNM stage, histological grade, and age are important clinical factors related to recurrence, however the exact mechanism of tamoxifen resistance is still unclear.

methodsDifferentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in 10 pairs of patients who had relapsed and non-relapsed after tamoxifen treatment based on matching their clinicopathological factors. After analysis of the Gene Ontology (GO) terms and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways, 10 hub genes were identified using Cytoscape software. Next, real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and the Molecular Taxonomy of Breast Cancer International Consortium (METABRIC) database were used to verify the expression and overall survival (OS) of the 10 hub genes respectively, and GSE96058 and Kaplan-Meier Plotter website were used to further verify the OS of

resultsThe DEGs were mainly enriched in the inflammatory response and cytokine-receptor interaction. The expression and the survival analysis identified
