original publication.
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Final 5-year results of Z-FAST trial: adjuvant zoledronic acid maintains bone mass in postmenopausal breast cancer patients receiving letrozole
Cancer. 2012 Mar 1;118(5):1192-201. doi: 10.1002/cncr.26313. Epub 2011 Oct 10Exclusive Author Interview
Dr. Adam M. Brufsky discusses the use of adjuvant zoledronic acid to maintain bone mass in postmenopausal breast cancer patients.
602 postmenopausal women receiving adjuvant letrozole were randomized either to upfront zoledronic acid or delayed-start zoledronic acid to determine which method minimizes bone-loss. At 5 years follow-up, upfront zoledronic acid was better at maintaining bone mineral density (BMD) in postmenopausal breast cancer patients than the delayed start technique.
