An epithelial and spindle cell breast tumour of myoepithelial origin. An immunohistochemical and ultrastructural study.

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
An infiltrating epithelial and spindle cell neoplasm developed in the breast of a 63-year-old female. An excisional biopsy was performed. Recurrence with rapid growth due to cyst development eventually resulted in more radical surgery. Interim fine needle aspirations had established its partially cystic nature. The unique microscopic appearance prompted the application of immunohistochemistry and electron microscopy. The tumour cells were found to exhibit characteristics denoting squamous and myoepithelial differentiation. Histopathological features of malignancy were absent. Our findings demonstrate the differentiation potential of breast epithelium. They are in concordance with the results of previous studies which delineate the histochemical and ultrastructural features of myoepithelial and establish the relationship of these cells to squamous metaplasia.
