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

Background: Human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) overexpressing breast cancer is associated with more aggressive tumor characteristics and poorer clinical outcomes. It is important to determine HER-2 status of breast cancer for better treatment planning. This study aims to explore the correlation between real-time shear wave elastography (SWE) and HER-2 expression in breast cancer. Methods: A total of 67 patients who underwent breast cancer surgery between January 2017 and January 2021 were recruited for this retrospective study. Among 70 breast cancer lesions in the included patients, 31 lesions were HER-2 negative, and 39 lesions were HER-2 positive. SWE imaging was conducted and Young's modulus values including mean elastic modulus (E Results: The HER-2 positive group had a higher proportion of lesions with a diameter of ≥20 mm. The E Conclusions: E
