Technique-Driven and Patient-Specific Variations in Complications of Mastectomy with Immediate Breast Reconstruction: An Evidence-Based Review.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 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
Mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) has become increasingly common, driven by advances in mastectomy techniques and the growing number of autologous, implant-based, and hybrid reconstructive options. The expansion of reconstructive strategies has introduced greater complexity in surgical planning and outcomes. Postoperative outcomes are influenced not only by mastectomy-related complications but also by complications specific to each reconstructive technique. Consequently, each combination of mastectomy and reconstructive modality carries unique benefits, limitations, and complication profiles that must be evaluated in the context of patient-specific factors, such as comorbidities, oncologic treatment, and reconstructive goals. This narrative review aims to characterize complication profiles associated with mastectomy and IBR to support improved perioperative management and individualized surgical care. To enhance clinical utility, this review includes representative clinical images that demonstrate variability in complication presentation across surgical approaches and patient contexts. This review presents a framework for understanding the factors that influence patient candidacy and outcomes in the setting of mastectomy with IBR, thereby supporting improved risk stratification and tailored treatment algorithms.
