1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

rationaleAcinic cell carcinoma (AcCC) of the breast is a rare histological type of malignant epithelial neoplasm exhibiting acinic cell differentiation. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 52-year-old woman presented to the hospital with a palpable mass over the upper outer quadrant of the right breast. DIAGNOSES: Physical examination revealed an irregular mass in the lateral upper quadrant of the left breast, approximately 1.5 cm in diameter. Histologically, the tumor cells were round to oval, had displaced nuclei with striking single nucleoli and basophilic cytoplasm, and contained large coarse cytoplasmic granules. They showed an infiltrating growth pattern with a combination of cystic and cribriform feature. We diagnosed the tumor as AcCC of the breast.

interventionsThe patient was given a simple mastectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy. After the surgery, AcCC of the breast was confirmed histologically. OUTCOMES: The patient was symptom free 3 months after surgery. LESSONS: AcCC of the breast is a very rare tumor, and its prognosis appears to be good. Thus, treatment followed the guidelines for invasive breast carcinoma and no further therapy was suggested by oncologists based on the tumor biology.
