Risk Factors for Positive Resection Margins in Breast-Conserving Surgery for Breast Cancer-Retrospective Analysis.
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The primary objective of this study was to identify preoperative factors that could be associated with positive resection margins. We also tried to analyze the local recurrence and overall survival in patients who received conservative treatment for early-stage breast cancer and correlate these parameters with preoperative factors. A retrospective examination was conducted on the medical records and pathological reports of 143 patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for breast cancer in our department from 2009 to 2017. Postoperative outcomes were assessed through phone contact and statistical analyses, including GraphPad Prism, and Fisher's exact test, the Chi-square test, and the log-rank test were employed. The results revealed positive resection margins in 7.69% (11 cases) of the 143 patients, with an overall mortality rate of 16.66% for those with positive margins and 6.59% for those with negative margins. Statistical analysis indicated no significant differences in the overall (
