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

Background: Autologous fat transfer (AFT) is gaining popularity in breast surgery, offering a natural-looking and minimally invasive approach for augmentation, reconstruction, and contouring. However, concerns about its impact on breast cancer necessitate an understanding of the interplay between transplanted adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and the breast tissue microenvironment. Renowned for regeneration, ADSCs raise questions about their role in cancer promotion. This systematic review delves into the complex relationship between AFT and breast cancer, exploring how ADSCs may influence development, growth, and metastasis. Methods: A systematic search of electronic databases, including PubMed, Embase, and BVS was conducted to identify relevant studies. The search strategy employed a combination of keywords, including "breast augmentation", "fat grafting", "breast enhancement", "mammoplasty", "cancer", "neoplasm" and related terms. Two reviewers independently screened titles and abstracts. Full-text articles were then retrieved for further evaluation based on their potential contribution to the review objectives. Results: Two hundred and forty records were identified. Among these, 104 duplicates were removed, resulting in 136 reports available for title and abstract screening. Subsequently, 54 papers were deemed potentially eligible for inclusion, and all reports were retrieved. Conclusions:
