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.

Abstract

Background: Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of long-term mortality among breast cancer survivors, yet chemotherapy-induced dyslipidemia remains an underrecognized component of survivorship care. Methods: In this prospective, single-center study, 56 women with clinical stage IB-IIIB early breast cancer received standardized anthracycline- and taxane-based chemotherapy. Fasting lipid profiles including low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), total cholesterol, and triglycerides, were assessed at four timepoints: baseline, post-anthracycline-cyclophosphamide phase, end of treatment, and 3-month follow-up. Longitudinal changes were analysed using non-parametric tests and multivariable linear regression. Results: Baseline dyslipidemia was present in 78.4% of patients. Chemotherapy significantly altered all lipid parameters, with changes in total cholesterol ( Conclusion: Standard chemotherapy induces sustained proatherogenic lipid shifts in women with early breast cancer, independent of baseline cardiovascular risk factors. The unexpectedly high prevalence of dyslipidemia among premenopausal women challenges traditional assumptions of cardiometabolic protection in younger patients. These findings support the integration of lipid monitoring and early cardiovascular risk management into survivorship care.
