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

Introduction: Oncoplastic breast surgery has become a major player in modern breast surgery.It broadens the indications for breast-conserving surgery. More challenging cases are being treated more with what so-called "extreme oncoplastic breast surgery" which is defined as a breast-conserving operation, using oncoplastic techniques, in a patient who, in most physicians' opinions, requires a mastectomy. Methods: Replacement and/or displacement oncoplastic techniques with contralateral symmetrization to three female patients with breast cancer were done by an oncoplastic breast surgeon. Outcomes: The three patients had smooth recoveries with good aesthetic,oncologic and psychological outcomes. Conclusion: Oncoplastic breast surgery can be a better option than mastectomy with good oncologic, Psychological and aesthetic outcomes, even with extreme cases, yet long-term studies are needed.
