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

Radiation-induced angiosarcoma is a highly aggressive malignancy. We encountered a case of angiosarcoma arising in the bilateral breast seven years after partial mastectomy and the last radiation therapy. As recommended, wide resection with skin grafting was performed to ensure negative surgical margins. After surgery, taxane-based chemotherapy was administered. However, adjuvant chemotherapy was discontinued because of drug-induced institutional pneumonia. Eighteen months postoperatively, angiosarcoma recurred in subcutaneous, lymph nodes, lungs, and bones. The disease progressed too rapidly, and the patient died two months after recurrence.
