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

purposeTo construct a breast cancer bone-only metastasis (BCBM) risk and prognostic model for Asian females and provide a reference for treatment selection in breast cancer (BC) patients with bone-only metastasis (BM). PATIENTS AND

methodsThe data for newly diagnosed female patients of Asian Pacific Islander (API) ethnicity between 2010 and 2018 were obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. A total of 16,972 patients were identified. Logistic regression analyses were used to establish a risk model for BCBM. Cox proportional hazards regression analyses were used to construct nomograms for the prognosis of BC and BCBM. Subsequently, the degree of discrimination of the nomogram was evaluated using the consistency index (C-index) and receiver operating curve.

resultsThe main independent risk factors of BM in Asian females with BC were primary site surgery (p<0.0001), ER (p=0.0015), and T-stage (p=0.0046). The C-index values in the training and validation cohorts were 0.933 and 0.941, respectively. The main independent risk factors of the prognosis of BC were age (p<0.001), summary stage (p<0.001), and grade (p=0.002). The C-index values of 5-year overall survival (OS) in the training and validation cohorts were 0.823 and 0.804, respectively. The risk factors of the prognosis of Asian females with BCBM were subtype (p<0.001), histology (p<0.001), and grade (p=0.033). The C-index values of 5-year OS in the training and validation cohorts were 0.793 and 0.723, respectively.

conclusionUsing population-based analysis, this study constructed a prediction model for the risk and prognosis of BM in Asian females with BC. Another newly constructed model was effective in predicting OS in BCBM patients. These models can help prevent skeletal-related events and weigh the risks and benefits of surgery for metastatic lesions in BCBM patients.
