Coexisting DCIS and phyllodes breast tumors in Young Chinese women: Case series.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionBreast cystosarcoma phyllodes tumors are rare and can be benign or malignant. All sub-divisions of phyllodes tumor-benign, borderline and malignant, can harbor carcinomas, although the incidence is extremely rare.
methodsWe present two nonconsecutive cases of coexisting ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and phyllodes breast tumors in young patients. METHODS & CASE PRESENTATION: Retrospective review of two patient's medical record was performed. CASE 1: 30-year-old female underwent excisional biopsy for 3.48 cm mass found on ultrasound. Pathology revealed malignant phyllodes tumor with positive margin. On re-excision, patient was found to have 1.5 cm area of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) with positive margin. Patient then underwent re-reexicision of DCIS with negative margin. Patient underwent chemotherapy and tamoxifen for three years without evidence of disease. CASE 2: 30-year-old female presented with 1.3 cm lesion found on ultrasound which core needle biopsy revealed a fibroepithelial tumor. Patient subsequently underwent excision biopsy which found 1.5 cm benign phyllodes tumor and 3.5 mm DCIS within the phyllodes tumor with negative margins. Patient declined additional chemotherapy or hormonal therapy and is currently considering mastectomy.
conclusionPhyllodes tumors are rare and ones with a coexisting carcinoma are even less frequently encountered. The treatment plan can change upon diagnosis of the carcinoma via the pathology. Treatment should be guided by the type and stage of carcinoma detected which may include additional surgical resection and lymph node sampling.
