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

We are reporting a case of a 54-year-old transgender female with a history of breast augmentation with bilateral silicone implants. Seventeen years later, she presented with an enlarging right breast mass. Pathology confirmed breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (Ann Arbor Stage IIE, TNM Stage III BIA-ALCL). The patient underwent bilateral capsulectomy, sentinel lymph node biopsy with adjuvant CHOP (cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone) chemotherapy, and radiotherapy to the right chest, axilla, and supraclavicular lymph nodes. BIA-ALCL is a rare entity, especially in transgender females. We report this case and a review of the literature in this report.
