An Audit on Oncological Safety with Magseed Localised Breast Conserving Surgery.
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Wire-localised wide local excision (W-WLE) has been standard of care for impalpable breast lesions. Logistics and risks of wire localisation can be challenging. Magseed-localised wide local excision (M-WLE) is an alternative to W-WLE. We compare safety parameters and length of hospital stay (LOS) in patients undergoing M-WLE to W-WLE. All M-WLEs performed at single institution over an 8-month period were included and compared to historic matched cohort of W-WLEs who would have been suitable for Magseed localisation. Data including patient demographics, successful placements, re-excision rates, tumour size, and length of stay (LOS) was analysed. Two hundred thirty-eight patients were included in the study. Cancers were safely excised in all cases. A significant difference in re-excisions rates favouring M-WLE group was seen (2.9% vs 10.4%). Median waiting time to surgery was significantly shorter in M-WLE group (4 h 15 min vs 7 h 3 min). No significant difference in median LOS between the two groups was seen. M-WLE has been shown to be oncologically safe and non-inferior to W-WLE with significantly lower re-excision rate. Reduced pre-operative waiting time in the M-WLE group will have a positive effect on patient journey. Further research should focus on potential impact on day-bed utilisation and theatre efficiency.
