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

Background: Anthracyclines play an important role in the treatment of breast cancer (BC) and other malignant tumors. However, accompanied side-effects are non-ignorable. The purpose of this meta-analysis is to determine the risk factors for anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity (ACT), so as to identify high-risk patients. Methods: The search for literature was conducted in PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Embase and Web of science. Records were selected with inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria. The newcastle-ottawa scale (NOS) was used to assess the quality of literature, and Review Manager 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. Results: Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis indicated that risk factors for ACT were use of trastuzumab (odds ratio [OR]: 2.84, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.49-3.22, Conclusions: Patients with high risk for ACT can be identified by these factors. For such patients, a higher level of monitoring and protection for the cardiac function should be performed by clinicians. Systematic Review Registration: INPLASY, identifier INPLASY202250140.
