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: Breast cancer is a malignancy characterized by chromosomal instability (CIN). This study aimed to examine the potential diagnostic value of chromosomal instability, detected by low-pass whole-genome sequencing (LPWGS), in the preoperative evaluation of sentinel lymph node metastasis (SLNM) in breast cancer. Methods: A retrospective investigation of clinical records from 29 patients with breast cancer revealed two distinct groups based on sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) results: the SLN metastasis group (24 cases) and the SLN non-metastasis group (five cases). CIN and CIN scores were evaluated using LPWGS. An analysis of univariate data and binary logistic regression was employed to identify factors influencing SLNM, and a curve with receiver operating characteristics (ROC) was constructed to assess the diagnostic utility of CIN in predicting SLNM. Results: A significant association between the SLNM and CIN high groups was observed in breast cancer ( Conclusion: Detecting CIN through LPWGS demonstrates diagnostic potential in predicting SLNM in patients with breast cancer before surgery. This approach offers a novel method for assessing axillary lymph node status in clinical practice.
