Wise-pattern Split-reduction Incision to Facilitate Mastectomy and Direct-to-Implant Reconstruction for Superficial Breast Cancers.

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
The split reduction allows for oncoplastic breast conserving surgery using a modified Wise-pattern closure in ptotic patients with cancers in close proximity to a skin margin. Although cancers involving skin within the Wise pattern are conveniently resected during closure, cancers in close proximity to skin outside the Wise pattern require a modified closure. This modified Wise-pattern closure preserves skin near the inferior pole of the breast which is normally resected and shifts this resection superiorly over the cancer. This also shifts the final medial or lateral inframammary scar onto the visible breast mound. Although this split-reduction Wise pattern has been well described for resecting advanced cancers in patients who undergo oncoplastic breast conserving surgery, this approach has not been described in patients who require mastectomy. Here, we report on 10 consecutive patients with ptosis and advanced breast cancers that require skin resection outside the standard Wise pattern, where we used the split-reduction incision to facilitate mastectomy and direct-to-implant reconstruction.
