Exploring the potential of contrast agents in breast cancer echography: current state and future directions.
Review in Journal of ultrasound, 2023. 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 2 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
Breast cancer stands as the most frequent malignancy and leading cause of death among women. Early and accurate detection of this pathology represents a crucial factor in enhancing both incidence and mortality rates. Ultrasound (US) examination has been extensively adopted in clinical practice due to its non-invasiveness, affordability, ease of implementation, and wide accessibility, thus representing a valuable first-line diagnostic tool for the study of the mammary gland. In this scenario, recent developments in nanomedicine are paving the way for new interpretations and applications of US diagnostics, which are becoming increasingly personalized based on the molecular phenotype of each tumor, allowing for more precise and accurate evaluations. This review highlights the current state-of-the-art of US diagnosis of breast cancer, as well as the recent advancements related to the application of US contrast agents to the field of molecular diagnostics, still under preclinical study.
