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

Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) are frequently associated with second primary malignancies (SPMs). Earlier studies have demonstrated that NETs are highly associated with synchronous or metachronous gastrointestinal and genitourinary SPMs. We report, for the first time, a case of pure NE breast carcinoma (NEBC) exhibiting all of the World Health Organization (WHO)-categorized morphological and phenotypic NE features (i.e., round solid nests of spindle cells, plasmacytoid cells, large clear or mucinous signet-ring cells with a peripheral palisading tendency and immunohistochemical positivity for the NE markers synaptophysin and chromogranin in more than 50% of the tumor cell population) along with synchronous abdominal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. In the present study, we review the diagnosis, clinicopathological features and histogenetic profiling of NEBC and discuss the literature relevant to the clinical and anatomopathological management of this case. This previously unreported case of synchronous solid NEBC and abdominal lymphoma, together with earlier studies showing that primary symptoms are caused by SPMs in a significant subgroup of NET patients, strongly supports the notion that NETs should be cautiously considered to be index tumors. Therefore, risk-adapted clinicopathological follow-up with systematic investigation is strongly recommended.
