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

Ki67 index is considered to be a reliable indicator of the proliferative activity of breast cancer. Additionally, the Ki67 proliferative marker may play a role in assessing response to systemic therapeutic strategies and can act as a prognostic biomarker. But its limited reproducibility which stems from a lack of standardization of procedures, inter-observer variability, and preanalytical and analytical variabilities all have hampered the use of the Ki67 index in clinical practice. Currently, clinical trials have been evaluating Ki67 as a predictive marker for needing adjuvant chemotherapy in luminal early breast cancer patients receiving neoadjuvant endocrine therapy. But the inconsistencies existing in the estimation of the Ki67 index limit the utility of Ki67 in standard clinical practice. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the benefits and drawbacks of utilizing Ki-67 in early-stage breast cancer to prognosticate the disease and predict the risk of recurrence.
