Role of core needle biopsy in primary breast lymphoma.
Article in La Radiologia medica, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Primary breast lymphoma (PBL) may mimic carcinoma clinically and also mammographic and ecographic distinction is subtle. Despite its rarity, incidence of PBLs has increased over the last four decades and continues to increase for younger women and for some subtypes, and for this reason it is increasingly important to achieve a preoperative pathological diagnosis using core needle biopsy (CNB) or fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNA). The aim of this retrospective study was to report our single-center experience in CNBs performed for histological diagnosis of PBL compared to FNA. From a total of 10,500 CNBs we found seven patients affected by PBL diagnosed at Careggi Florence University Hospital, between January 2000 and December 2016. Diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) was the most frequent PBLs and on CNBs specimens was possible do the fluorescent in situ hybridization analysis to evaluate the presence of chromosomal translocation. CNB is an effective method for the assessment of PBLs, especially for DLBCL, in which a correct and fast classification could change the therapeutic approach and the prognosis.
