Neurofibromatosis type 1 and male breast cancer: emerging risk factor?
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the appearance of cafe au lait spots, neurofibromas and Lisch nodules. There is an established link between NF1 and the development of breast cancer in women; however, due to the rarity of both NF1 and male breast cancer, the same link has yet to be elucidated in men. The concurrent presentation of NF1 and male breast cancer is a very rare phenomenon with only a handful of case descriptions in the literature. To the best of our knowledge, there have only been four other reported cases of NF1 and male breast cancer before ours. We present one such case of a 56-year-old male with a four generation history of NF1 and a personal history of NF1 who presented with invasive ductal carcinoma of the right breast.
