Different Prognostic Values of Tumour and Nodal Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Depending on Subtypes of Inflammatory Breast Cancer, a 317 Patient-Study.
Article in Cancers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare entity with a poor prognosis. We analysed the survival outcomes of patients with nonmetastatic IBC and the prognostic value of tumour or nodal responses to assess their individual prognostic impact across IBC subtypes. This retrospective multicentre study included patients diagnosed with IBC between 2010 and 2017 to account for advances in neoadjuvant systemic therapies and modern radiotherapy at seven oncology centres in France. Three hundred and seventeen patients were included and analysed. After a median follow-up of 52 months, the 5-year DFS was lower for triple-negative (TN) (50.1% vs. 63.6%; p < 0.0001). After multivariate analyses, incomplete nodal response was the only significant prognostic factor in the triple-negative group (HR:6.06). The poor prognosis of TN-IBC was reversed in the case of nodal response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Breast response does not appear to be a decisive prognostic factor in patients with TN-IBC compared to lymph node response. Despite improvements in neoadjuvant treatments, IBC remains associated with a poor prognosis. In TN-IBC patients, lack of pathological complete node response was associated with poorer survival than any other group. Treatment intensification strategies are worth investigating.
