A case of matrix-producing metaplastic carcinoma of the breast exhibiting similarities to pleomorphic adenoma on fine-needle aspiration cytology.

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
The distinction between matrix-producing metaplastic carcinoma (MPMC) and pleomorphic adenoma (PA) is sometimes unclear in breast pathology, especially on core needle biopsy. Herein, we presented a 66-year-old woman with MPMC of the breast that looked like PA on fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). On FNAC, the appearance of abundant myxoid matrix along with cellular clusters composed of monotonous cellular populations looked like salivary PA, which we were familiar with owing to the frequency in routine pathological practice. Thus, the possibility of breast PA, the counterpart of salivary PA, was considered. However, the tumor location was different from where breast PA frequently occurs, i.e. the retroareolar region. Therefore, we eliminated the possibility of breast PA and avoided the erroneous cytological diagnosis. It is should be kept in mind that MPMC can look like PA on FNAC.
