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

RAD51 recombinase is one of the DNA damage repair proteins associated with breast cancer risk. Apart from its function to maintain genomic integrity within the cell nucleus, RAD51 localized to the cytoplasm has also been implicated in breast malignancy. However, limited information exists on the roles of cytoplasmic vs. nuclear RAD51 in breast cancer progression and patient prognosis. In the present study, the association of cytoplasmic and nuclear RAD51 with clinical outcomes of patients with breast cancer was analyzed, revealing that elevated cytoplasmic RAD51 expression was associated with breast cancer progression, including increased cancer stage, grade, tumor size, lymph node metastasis and chemoresistance, along with reduced patient survival. By contrast, elevated nuclear RAD51 expression largely had the inverse effect. Results from
