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

purposeThe impact of a germline BRCA1/2 pathogenic variant (gBRCApv) on baseline or late post-treatment AMH concentrations in breast cancer patients has been extensively studied, yielding mixed conclusions. However, whether the AMH decline during neo-adjuvant chemotherapy reflects differences in chemotherapy susceptibility between gBRCApv carriers and non-carriers remains unexplored.

methodsA monocentric, retrospective, longitudinal study was conducted on breast cancer patients carrying a gBRCApv (n = 12) or wild-type (WT) (n = 35) who received a neo-adjuvant sequential chemotherapy (CT) with anthracyclines followed by taxanes. Serum AMH levels were measured at baseline (AMH0) and at three time points during CT by a hypersensitive assay. Tumor size change was assessed via imaging. The impact of genetic status on AMH decline was evaluated using a linear mixed model with post hoc analysis.

resultsThe change of AMH concentrations from baseline to the end of CT tended to be influenced by the genetic status (BRCA * time interaction, p = 0.058). The slope between AMH0 and the end of anthracyclines (after log transformation) was steeper in gBRCApv than in WT patients (mean (SE): - 5.54 (0.63) vs - 3.97 (0.62); p = 0.023). Tumor size change was positively and significantly correlated with the change in AMH levels (AMH MidCT-AMH0) in gBRCApv patients (r = 0.93, p < 0.001) but not in WT patients (r = - 0.05; p = 0.84).

conclusionGermline BRCA1/2 status influences AMH decline during neo-adjuvant CT with drugs inducing DNA lesions. AMH decay is positively related to tumor size change assessed by imaging in gBRCApv patients. However, no conclusions can be drawn regarding the relationship with treatment response assessed by histological criteria.
