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

Breast cancer progression is influenced by tumor subtype, metabolic environment, and patient factors, including menopausal status and BMI. In this study, we utilized publicly available data to investigate the prognostic relevance of PPARγ gene's expression across different subgroups. We also examined adipose tissue proliferation in patients with various tumor subtypes and phenotypic cohorts. We analyzed RNA-seq data from primary breast cancer patients in the TCGA-BRCA cohort, stratifying patients by PPARγ expression, menopausal status, and tumor receptor subtype. Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed that high PPARγ expression was associated with improved overall survival, particularly in premenopausal patients. Complementing this, we analyzed PET-CT scans from breast cancer patients in the ACRIN-6888 trial, focusing on standardized uptake value (SUV) metrics of a cell cycle tracer, 3'-deoxy-3'-[18F]-fluorothymidine (
