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

backgroundPrimary breast signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) is a rare type of breast cancer with typical morphological characteristics, high aggressiveness, and poor prognosis. SRCC is different from mucinous breast adenocarcinoma (MBC). However, only a few studies have explored the clinicopathological features and prognosis of SRCC and MBC.

methodsData retrieved from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End-Results (SEER) database (2004-2015) were used to explore the prognostic effect of clinicopathological features and treatment modalities on survival outcomes of SRCC and MBC patients. Kaplan-Meier plot analysis, multivariate Cox proportional risk model, propensity score matching (PSM), and subgroup analysis were performed.

resultsA total of 167 patients with SRCC and 11,648 patients with MBC were included in the study. SRCC patients exhibited higher histological grade (

conclusionThe findings showed that primary breast SRCC patients have unique clinical characteristics and worse prognosis compared with MBC patients. Notably, different treatment methods resulted in different prognosis for SRCC and MBC types; therefore, SRCC patients should be distinguished from MBC patients to improve efficacy of treatment.
