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

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and the second most common cancer overall. Although advancements in the early diagnosis and therapy of breast cancer have occurred in recent years, the prognosis of breast cancer bone metastasis remains poor and this type of cancer is rarely cured. The gut microbiota is indispensable for internal homeostasis and regulates various biological processes. Understanding the gut microbiota profiles in normal controls (NCs), breast cancer patients with no metastasis (BNs), and breast cancer patients with bone metastasis (BMs) may shed light on the development of diagnostic and therapeutic targets for breast cancer and bone metastasis. We comprehensively analyzed the gut microbiota from NCs, BNs, and BMs and found that the community diversity decreased in the order of NCs, BNs, and BMs.
