Pegfilgrastim-induced fatigue and leukocytosis improved following dose reduction in a young patient with breast cancer: A case report.

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
Dose-dense (DD) chemotherapy is a treatment option for patients with high-risk premenopausal breast cancer. Pegfilgrastim may be administered as prophylaxis against the development of febrile neutropenia and enables the continuation of the DD schedule; however, it is associated with adverse effects, including bone and muscle pain and fatigue. We herein describe our experience with pegfilgrastim administration alongside DD chemotherapy in a patient with breast cancer. A 29-year-old female patient was diagnosed with locally advanced breast cancer during lactation. The patient was diagnosed with cT2N1M0, stage IIB triple-negative breast cancer and underwent four cycles of DD chemotherapy with epirubicin plus cyclophosphamide, followed by four cycles of docetaxel (DTX) every 2 weeks preoperatively, with 3.6 mg pegfilgrastim administered subcutaneously on day 3 of each cycle. The absolute neutrophil count (ANC) was 2,700, 8,400, 11,100, 13,300 and 15,000/mm
