Prospective Evaluation of Complications and Associated Risk Factors in Breast Cancer Surgery.
Article in Journal of oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 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
Background: Surgical site infection (SSI) is a well-known complication after breast cancer surgery. The primary aim was to assess risk factors for SSI. Risk factors for other wound complications were also studied. Materials and Methods: In this prospectively registered cohort study, patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery (BCS) or mastectomy between May 2017 and May 2019 were included. Data included patient and treatment characteristics, infection, and wound complication rates. Risk factors for SSI and wound complications were analyzed with simple and multiple logistic regression. Results: The study cohort consisted of 592 patients who underwent 707 procedures. There were 66 (9.3%) SSI and 95 (13.4%) wound complications. "BMI > 25," "oncoplastic BCS," "reoperation within 24 hour," and "prolonged operative time" were risk factors for SSI with simple analysis. BMI 25-30 and >30 remained as significant risk factors for SSI with adjusted analysis. Risk factors for "any wound complication" with adjusted analysis were "mastectomy with/without reconstruction" in addition to "BMI 25-30" and "BMI > 30." Conclusion: The only significant risk factor for SSI on multivariable analysis were BMI 25-30 and BMI > 30. Significant risk factors for "any wound complication" on multivariable analysis were "mastectomy with/without reconstruction" as well as "BMI 25-30" and "BMI > 30".
