Ileal carcinoid tumor represents after prolonged remission as a solitary breast mass.

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
While the metastatic spread of breast cancer is well documented, the breast is seldom a site for metastasis. Non-mammillary cancers can involve the breast or axilla, though this is exceedingly rare with few reported instances. Here, we present the case of a 62-year-old woman who attended an outpatient breast clinic with a history of an ileal carcinoid tumor complicated by multi-organ metastasis. Her disease was in clinical remission for several years, though she recently re-presented with a single solitary lesion to the breast that was later confirmed as a recurrence of her carcinoid tumor. This serves as an important reminder that the breast can indeed be a site for metastasis. As metastatic breast lesions can often be difficult to diagnose, it is essential to obtain a thorough medical history in order to determine the appropriate clinical course.
