Locoregional Treatment for Early-Stage Breast Cancer: Current Status and Future Perspectives.
Review in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundThe locoregional recurrence of breast cancer has been reduced due to the multidisciplinary approach of breast surgery, systemic therapy and radiation. Early detection and better surgical techniques contribute to an improvement in breast cancer outcomes. PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The purpose of this review is to have an overview and summary of the current evidence behind the current approaches to the locoregional treatment of breast cancer and to discuss its future direction. SUMMARY: With improved surgical techniques and the use of a more effective neoadjuvant systemic therapy, including checkpoint inhibitors and dual HER2-directed therapies that lead to a higher frequency of pathologic complete responses and advances in adjuvant radiation therapy, breast cancer patients are experiencing better locoregional control and reduced local and systemic recurrence. De-escalation in surgery has not only improved the quality of life in the majority of breast cancer patients, but also maintained the low risk of recurrence. There are ongoing clinical trials to optimize radiation therapy in breast cancer. More modern radiation technologies are evolving to improve the patient outcome and reduce radiation toxicities.
