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

Central nervous system (CNS) metastasis remains a major cause of mortality in advanced breast cancer (ABC). While cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitors (CDKIs) combined with endocrine therapy (ET) delay resistance in hormone receptor (HR)-positive and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative ABC, their impact on CNS metastasis development has not been fully elucidated. This retrospective study analyzed 435 ABC patients without baseline CNS metastases who received first-line ET with or without CDKIs across three Chinese hospitals (August 2018-July 2022). Primary end points included CNS as the first metastatic site, CNS metastasis-free survival (CNSM-FS), and CNS metastasis incidence over time. Secondary end points were progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). The results indicated that the addition of CDKIs to ET significantly reduced the incidence of CNS as the first site of metastasis (3.7% vs. 9.5% with ET alone;
