Predictors of Endocrine Resistance in a Cohort of Mexican Breast Cancer Patients.

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
Purpose: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of endocrine resistance in a cohort of Hispanic Mexican breast cancer (BC) patients receiving care at Instituto Nacional de Cancerología (INCan). Additionally, the clinical-pathological factors associated with endocrine resistance were identified, and their impact on patient survival was explored. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 200 BC patients who attended INCan between 2012 and 2016 with estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) positive tumors was made. Endocrine resistance was defined according to the International Consensus Guidelines for Advance Breast Cancer 2 definition. Their clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed to determine the association with endocrine resistance presence. We used sensitivity analyses and multivariate-adjusted logistic regressions, Kaplan-Meier curves, and multivariate-adjusted Cox regressions. P-value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Results: Endocrine resistance was observed in 32.5% of patients included in this study. The distinction between hormone resistance and sensitivity was influenced by tumor size and node status. It had a mean diameter of 7.15 cm in endocrine resistance cases compared to 5.71 cm in non-endocrine, with N3 status present in 20% of endocrine resistance cases versus only 2.2% in non-endocrine (p-value < 0.001). The clinical stage exhibited a strong association with endocrine resistance (Risk Ratio [RR] 4.39, 95% confidence interval [95%CI] 1.50, 11.43). Furthermore, endocrine resistance significantly impacted mortality during the follow-up, with a Hazard Ratio [HR] of 23.7 (95%CI 5.20, 108.42) in multivariable-adjusted models. However, a complete pathological response reduced the endocrine resistance risk, as demonstrated by a Risk Ratio (RR) of 0.15 (95% CI 0.03, 0.75). Conclusions: Advanced clinical stage at diagnosis predicted endocrine resistance in Hispanic Mexican BC patients. Complete pathologic response in locally advanced disease patients was also a key predictor of endocrine resistance. These results indicated that endocrine resistance was a critical factor in BC during follow-up.
