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.

Abstract
Background: This study aims to evaluate whether changes in therapeutic strategies have improved survival of patients diagnosed with hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2 negative (HER2-) advanced breast cancer (ABC) in real-world. Methods: All 1950 patients systemically treated for HR+/HER2- ABC and diagnosed between 2008 and 2019 in eight hospitals were retrieved from the SONABRE Registry (NCT-03577197). Patients were categorized per three-year cohorts based on year of ABC diagnosis. Tests for trend were used to examine differences in baseline characteristics, Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox proportional hazards for survival analyses, and competing-risk methods for 3-year use of systemic therapy. Findings: Over time, patients were older (≥70 years, 37%, n = 169/456 in 2008-2010, 47%, n = 233/493 in 2017-2019, p = 0.004) and more often had multiple metastatic sites at ABC diagnosis (48%, n = 220/456 in 2008-2010, 56%, n = 275/493 in 2017-2019, p = 0.002). Among patients with metachronous metastases the prior exposure to (neo-) adjuvant therapies increased over time (chemotherapy, 38%, n = 138/362 in 2008-2010, 48%, n = 181/376 in 2017-2019, p = <0.001; endocrine therapy, 64%, n = 231/362 in 2008-2010, 72%, n = 271/376 in 2017-2019, p = <0.001). Overall survival significantly improved from median 31.1 months (95% CI:28.2-34.3) for patients diagnosed in 2008-2010 to 38.4 months (95% CI:34.0-41.1) in 2017-2019 (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.76, 95% CI:0.64-0.90; p = 0.001). Three-year use of CDK4/6 inhibitors increased from 0% for patients diagnosed in 2008-2010 to 54% for diagnosis in 2017-2019. Conversely, three-year use of chemotherapy was 50% versus 36%, respectively. Interpretation: Over time, patients diagnosed with HR+/HER2- ABC presented with less favourable patient characteristics. Nevertheless, we observed that overall survival of ABC increased between 2008 and 2019, with increased use of endocrine/targeted therapies.
