Sonographic Features of Flat Epithelial Atypia Manifesting as a Non-Mass-Like Lesion: A Case Report.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND The incidence of flat epithelial atypia of the breast has been increasing owing to the increasing use of ultrasonography (US) and US-guided core needle biopsy. However, reports describing the sonographic features of flat epithelial atypia are fewer than those on its mammographic features. CASE REPORT A 47-year-old female had a regular 6 month-interval follow-up US for multiple bilateral breast masses detected on US. A new focal non-mass-like lesion measuring 2 cm in maximum diameter was noted in the 10 o'clock direction of the right breast on the follow-up US. Mammography was not performed during the follow-up period. The patient had no breast symptoms and no family history of breast cancer or other pertinent medical history. US-guided 14-gauge core needle biopsy yielded a pathological diagnosis of flat epithelial atypia without upgrade to malignancy, and this was further confirmed after complete excision of the non-mass-like lesion. CONCLUSIONS Flat epithelial atypia can present as a focal non-mass-like lesion on US, which has not been reported previously.
