Intracystic Papillary Carcinoma in Male Breast with High Nuclear Grade: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Intracystic papillary carcinoma (IPC) in men is an extremely rare disease that accounts for less than 1% of all malignancies with only a few case presentations published so far. This report presents a case of 53-year-old male, who presented a painless swelling of his left breast. The left breast mass was 6 cm maximally and was found to be non-invasive IPC. The tumour is consistently positive for GCDFP-15, ER or PR and negative for HER-2. It consists of predominantly fibrovascular stromal lined by monotonous epithelial cells retaining intermediate to high histological grade with a high nuclear cytoplasmic ratio. In addition, increased numbers of mitotic figures were also seen. Chest X-ray, liver ultrasound and bone centigram showed no evidence of distant metastases. In short, this is the first case report from Saudi Arabia of a male having IPC, with increased number of mitotic figures and high nuclear grades.
