Conventional Tools for Predicting Satisfactory Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in HR+/HER2- Breast Cancer Patients.

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
Aim: The aim of the study was to assess the role of Magee Equation 3 (MagEq3), IHC4 score, and HER2-low status in predicting "satisfactory response (SR)" to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in HR+/HER2- breast cancer (BC) patients. Methods: In a retrospective study, female patients of any age with T Results: In a total of 230 BC patients, 228 patients were included to compare according to their RCB levels. The mean age of patients with overall SR was significantly lower than those without. Patients with high Ki-67 expression, high (>30) MagEq3 score, high ICH4 quartile, and HER2-low status had significantly more overall SR. On the other hand, only patients with high Ki-67 expression had significantly more axillary SR. MagEq3 score levels, ICH4 quartiles, and HER2 status were similar between patients with axillary SR and not. Conclusion: MagEq3 and IHC4 tools seemed to be useful to predict those HR+/HER2- BC patients who are most likely to get benefit from NAC. But, only high Ki-67 expression level significantly predicted satisfactory axillary downstaging in HR+/HER2- BC patients.
