Is Survival with Conservative Breast Therapy Becoming Superior to That with Modified Radical Mastectomy Alone for the Treatment of Early Breast Cancer in This Era?
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
This study aims to assess survival rates in early breast cancer patients treated by conservative breast therapy (CBT), including radiotherapy, compared with those treated by modified radical mastectomy (MRM) alone. The South Egypt Cancer Institute and the Assiut University Oncology Department patients' records, from January 2010 to December 2017, were searched for T1-2N0-1M0 breast cancer patients treated by CBT or MRM. Patients who did not receive chemotherapy were excluded to reduce the treatment variation. The 5-year locoregional disease-free survival (LRDFS) was 97.3% for the CBT patients was and 98.0% for the MRM patients (
