Estimating the Benefit of Preoperative Systemic Therapy to Reduce the Extent of Breast Cancer Surgery: Current Standard and Future Directions.
Article in Cancer treatment and research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Once reserved for locally advanced tumors which were deemed inoperable at presentation, preoperative systemic therapy (PST) is nowadays increasingly used to treat early breast cancer. PST allows for in vivo assessment of tumor response, for tailoring of adjuvant systemic therapy and for de-escalation of breast and the axillary surgery. Increased rates of pathological complete response together with more accurate response assessment and surgical planning have led to a significant reduction in surgical morbidity. While surgical assessment remains the standard of care, ongoing studies are evaluating whether surgery can be omitted in patients who achieve a complete pathological response. In this chapter, I will review the impact of PST on surgical de-escalation and the data supporting the safety of this approach.
