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

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) was developed with the aims of shrinking tumors or stopping cancer cells from spreading before surgery. Unfortunately, not all breast cancer patients will benefit from NACT, and thus, patients must weigh the risks and benefits of treatment prior to the initiation of therapy. Currently, the data for predicting the efficacy of NACT is limited. Molecular testing, such as Oncotype DX, MammaPrint, and Curebest 95GC, have been developed to assist which breast cancer patients will benefit from the treatment. Patients with an increased level of Human Leukocyte Antigen-DR isotype, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, Fizzy-related protein homolog, and a decreased level of tumor-associated macrophages appear to benefit most from NACT.
