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

There is no strong evidence indicating the optimal treatment for breast cancer (BC) and no specific prognostic model. The aim of this study was to establish nomograms to predict the overall survival (OS) of BC patients receiving chemoradiotherapy and surgery, thereby quantifying survival benefits and improving patient management. A total of 1877 patients with primary nonmetastatic BC who received chemoradiotherapy and surgery from 2010 to 2019 were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database as the training cohort, 804 as the internal validation cohort, and 796 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (n=324) and Jiaxing Maternal and Child Health Hospital (n=472) as the external validation cohort. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), univariate, and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed in the training cohort to determine independent prognostic factors for BC, and a nomogram was constructed to predict 3-year, 5-year, and 8-year OS. The final model incorporated 7 factors that significantly affect OS: race, location, positive regional nodes, T stage, N stage, subtype, and grade. The calibration curves showed good consistency between the predicted survival and actual outcomes. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the time-dependent area under the curve (AUC) confirmed that the accuracy and clinical usefulness of the constructed nomograms were favorable. Decision curve analysis (DCA) and net reclassification improvement (NRI) also demonstrated that this nomogram was more suitable for clinical use than the 7
