Phyllodes tumour with heterologous sarcomatous differentiation: Case series with literature review.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
introductionPhyllodes tumours are rare fibroepithelial malignancies of the breast, accounting for less than 1% of malignant breast tumours. Further malignant differentiation of phyllodes tumours can occur, resulting in cases of extremely rare heterologous sarcomatous differentiation. PRESENTATION OF CASE: Two females in their fifties were diagnosed with malignant phyllodes tumour associated with heterologous sarcomatous differentiation. The first patient, aged 50 had phyllodes tumour with chondrosarcoma, osteosarcoma and ductal carcinoma-in-situ. The second patient, aged 53 had phyllodes tumour with osteosarcoma and liposarcoma. DISCUSSION: The association of phyllodes tumour and heterologous sarcomatous differentiation is rare, with only 4 previously reported cases in English literature. The paucity of evidence presents challenges in its management with uncertain prognosis and monitoring requirements for two aforementioned patients.
conclusionFurther case series and long-term follow up is required for accurate characterisation of phyllodes tumours with heterologous sarcomatous differentiation.
