1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionThis study examines the association between hospital volume and all-cause mortality in Black women with triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) who received surgery and chemotherapy.

methodsBlack women ages 18+ with stage I-III TNBC who received both surgery and chemotherapy were identified in the National Cancer Database (NCDB). Hospital volume was determined using the number of annual breast cancer cases divided by the number of years the hospital participated in the NCDB. Hospital annual volume quartiles ranged from Q

resultsSixteen thousand five hundred fifty-six patients met the study criteria. All-cause mortality incidence was lower at higher volume compared to lower volume hospitals Q

conclusionBlack women treated at high-volume hospitals have lower all-cause mortality than those at low-volume hospitals. Future studies should examine the characteristics of high-volume hospitals associated with improved outcomes.
