The diagnostic accuracy of mammography and ultrasonography for recurrent breast cancer after breast conserving treatment.
Article in European journal of radiology open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: To evaluate the performance of mammography and breast ultrasonography to diagnose tumor recurrence in patients after breast conserving therapy. Material and Methods: Imaging findings of 130 breast cancer patients treated by breast conserving therapy (BCT) who have followed up with mammography and ultrasonography at our center between 1 Results: The presence of mass in mammography (P-value=0.025) and internal vascularity in mass in ultrasonography (P-value<0.001) were associated with recurrent tumor at the surgical bed. All the recurrent tumors were interpreted as BI-RADS 4 (71 patients) with sensitivity= 100%, specificity= 89.5%. BIRADS4 is significant in the diagnosis of recurrent breast cancer in BCT patients (AUC of the ROC curve = 0.742 and 95% CI=(0.7-0.79)). Conclusion: The presence of mass in mammography and internal vascularity in the mass in ultrasonography are the imaging findings which were significantly related to recurrent tumor at surgical bed in patient with breast conserving treatment.
