Impact of supportive bra use and surgical factors on seroma and pain following breast-conserving surgery: a single-center retrospective study.
Article in Journal of medicine and life, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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-conserving surgery (BCS) is widely accepted as a standard surgical approach in early-stage breast cancer. However, postoperative complications such as pain and seroma formation remain frequent and may negatively affect quality of life. The potential benefits of supportive bra use in the postoperative period have been suggested but remain insufficiently investigated. This single-center retrospective study included 128 female patients who underwent upfront BCS. All patients were advised to wear a supportive bra for at least 16 hours daily for 3 months postoperatively. Patients were categorized into two groups: regular supportive bra users (
