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

Mammary hypertrophy, or macromastia, is an increase in breast tissue volume due to multiple etiologies and still unknown pathophysiology. We report the case of a 45-year-old patient with juvenile macromastia, which caused cervical pain and decreased quality of life. It was decided to perform a reduction mammoplasty with a modified McKissock technique with a free nipple graft; the resected glandular tissue was 1039 grams in the right breast and 1029 grams in the left breast. An adequate projection of the upper pole was achieved with a good aesthetic result and clinical improvement of the patient.
