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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype of breast cancer defined by the absence of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression. Despite accounting for 15-20% of all breast cancer cases, TNBC is associated with poor prognosis and a high likelihood of recurrence and metastasis. Understanding the molecular subtypes of TNBC is important for developing targeted therapies and improving patient outcomes. This systematic review aimed to assess the prognostic significance of molecular subtypes of TNBC and the implications for therapeutic management. A comprehensive literature search was conducted across multiple databases, including PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, to identify studies focusing on the molecular classification of TNBC and its prognostic relevance. Studies were included based on specific inclusion criteria, including original research evaluating clinical outcomes and survival data in molecularly classified TNBC cohorts. Data were extracted, synthesized, and analyzed to determine the prognostic implications of different TNBC subtypes. The review identified several distinct molecular subtypes of TNBC, including basal-like, mesenchymal, immune-modulatory, and luminal androgen receptor (LAR) subtypes. Basal-like TNBC was associated with poor prognosis and high rates of recurrence, while immune-modulatory TNBC exhibited better survival outcomes, particularly in patients with high levels of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Mesenchymal and LAR subtypes exhibited diverse clinical behavior and varying therapeutic responses. Furthermore, key prognostic biomarkers, such as
