A prospective randomized controlled trial to determine the safety and efficacy of extracorporeal shock waves therapy for primary prevention of subclinical cardiotoxicity in breast cancer patients without a cardiovascular risk treated with doxorubicin.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05584163 (Single-center, Randomized, Prospective Controlled Pilot Study to Evaluate the Prevention and Safety of Doxorubicin-induced Cardiomyopathy Using Extracorporeal Shock Waves in Breast Cancer Patients Using Doxorubicin Anticancer Drugs), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Background: Doxorubicin is a highly effective anti-cancer drug that causes left ventricular (LV) dysfunction and induces late-onset cardiomyopathy. However, an effective and clinically applicable preventive treatment is yet to be discovered. Objective: Cardiac-Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (C-ESWT) has been suggested to treat inflammatory and ischemic diseases and protect cardiomyocytes from doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy. This study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of C-ESWT in the prevention of subclinical cardiotoxicity. Methods: We enrolled 64 breast cancer patients. C-ESWT group 33 patients were treated with our C-ESWT (200 shots/spot at 0.09 mJ/mm Results: Participants averaged 50 ± 9 years in age, 100% female. In the results of follow-up 6 months after the end of chemotherapy, there was a significant difference in delta LVGLS between the C-ESWT group and the control group (LVGLS; -1.1 ± 10.9% vs. -11.5 ± 11.6% Conclusion: In this prospective study, C-ESWT established efficacy in preventing subclinical cardiotoxicity, especially in breast cancer patients using doxorubicin chemotherapy, and the safety of C-ESWT.
