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

Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous and aggressive subtype with limited therapeutic targets. We retrospectively evaluated the expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) and transmembrane serine protease 4 (TMPRSS4) by immunohistochemistry in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor tissues from 145 patients with histologically confirmed TNBC, and we analyzed associations with clinicopathological features, Fudan immunohistochemistry-based subtypes, and clinical outcomes. Clinicopathological analyses included all 145 cases. Exploratory survival analyses included 59 patients with complete, verifiable follow-up and outcome data (median follow-up, 46 months), during which three deaths and eight progression events occurred. PTEN-retained expression was associated with worse overall survival (OS; log-rank
