Ten-Year Results of Accelerated Partial-Breast Irradiation with Interstitial Multicatheter Brachytherapy after Breast-Conserving Surgery for Low-Risk Early Breast Cancer.
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Patients with an early carcinoma of the breast are commonly treated by breast-conserving surgery (BCS) and postoperative radiotherapy. Partial-breast irradiation has gained acceptance in the last few years. Between December 2008 and December 2017, 182 low-risk breast cancer patients treated by BCS in the four university hospitals of the province of Las Palmas and treated with APBI using interstitial multicatheter brachytherapy were included in this study. After a mean follow-up for survivors of 10 years, the treatment was shown to be safe, as no severe acute/late toxicity (grade ≥ 3) was observed. The 10-year IBTR was 1.7% (95%CI: 0.7-2.7%), and the cause-specific survival was 94.9% (95%CI: 93.2-96.6%). We suggest that multicatheter brachytherapy after BCS is safe and effective in early breast cancer patients.
