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

Objective: This study aimed to explore the risk factors for metachronous uterine cancer, including age at diagnosis, stage, body mass index (BMI), medical history and tamoxifen treatment in women with breast cancer to enable tailored risk-based gynecological surveillance. Methods: A nationwide population-based cohort study was conducted. Data were retrieved from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database and Taiwan Cancer Registry from 2011 to 2019. The risk of metachronous uterine cancer was analyzed by Cox regression model. Results: There were 307 patients identified with uterine cancer among 114,906 patients with breast cancer. The incidence was 37.46 cases per 100,000 person-years among tamoxifen non-users (69 cases per 184,207 person-years). Among tamoxifen users (n = 58,227), the incidence rates were 105.52 cases (79 cases per 74,869 person-years) for <1 year of use, 111.62 cases (111 cases per 99,444 person-years) for 1-3 years, 58.19 cases (31 cases per 53,276 person-years) for 3-5 years, and 62.12 cases (17 cases per 27,366 person-years) for ≥5 years. The hazard ratio (HR) for uterine cancer was 3.06 (95 % confidence interval [CI] 2.14-4.39), 3.03 (95 % CI 2.15-4.28), 1.61 (95 % CI 1.01-2.57), and 1.77 (95 % CI 1.00-3.13) for patients on tamoxifen for <1, 1-3, 3-5, and ≥5 years. High BMI (≥25 kg/m Conclusion: Routine ultrasound is not recommended for the detection of metachronous uterine cancer, and gynecologic investigations should focus on breast cancer patients with high BMI, tamoxifen use, and abnormal uterine bleeding.
