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

purposeAlthough one of the essential factors in surgical shared decision-making is the body image, the breast morphology after breast-conserving surgery is particularly difficult to explain in a uniform manner due to large individual differences.

methodsPatients with breast cancer eligible for breast-conserving surgery (BCS) were recruited between June 2020 and October 2021. We surveyed the patients' satisfaction with our method of explaining the likely breast morphology after BCS using three-dimensional (3D) breast imaging in the form of a questionnaire.

resultsA total of 162 patients were enrolled, and 137 (84.6%) answered the questionnaire. One hundred and sixteen patients (84.6%) answered that they were very satisfied or satisfied with our explanation method, and 100 (73.0%) patients were very satisfied or satisfied with the 3D breast imaging. Some patients answered that 3D breast imaging helped them prepare for BCS, or on the contrary, made them choose mastectomy with breast reconstruction because the deformation likely with BCS was considered unacceptable. Only a few patients who underwent BCS felt that their postoperative morphology was more deformed than the preoperatively imagined one.

conclusionOur results suggest that our preoperative explanation method using 3D breast imaging was useful for shared decision-making.
