I-131 uptake in the breast from fat necrosis.
Article in Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center), 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
Radioactive iodine I-131 whole-body scintigraphy is used to monitor thyroid cancer metastases after total thyroidectomy. We present a case of a woman who was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer and underwent a total thyroidectomy. I-131 scintigraphy revealed abnormal accumulation of radioactive iodine in the right breast causing concern for thyroid cancer metastasis. Mammographic studies confirmed that the abnormal radiotracer accumulation was due to fat necrosis in the breast. I-131 uptake in fat necrosis is a poorly understood process that is not clearly defined in the literature. This case highlights that false-positive uptake of I-131 can mimic metastases of thyroid carcinoma.
