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

The occurrence of breast metastasis from prostate carcinoma and primary breast carcinoma in men may cause a diagnostic dilemma. This report aims to present a patient diagnosed with metastatic castrate-resistant prostatic adenocarcinoma who developed breast metastasis mimicking as a second primary. A 57-year-old male patient presented with a breast mass while undergoing hormonal therapy for prostatic adenocarcinoma. The initial histopathologic diagnosis of the breast specimen was an infiltrating ductal breast carcinoma. The breast mass enlarged after four cycles of docetaxel. Immunostaining with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and prostate-specific acid phosphatase (PSAP) was done on the breast specimen revealing a negative PSA and a moderately staining PSAP. These stains confirmed the diagnosis of a breast metastasis from prostatic adenocarcinoma. The differentiation between primary breast carcinoma and breast metastasis from prostate carcinoma is crucial. Hence, immunohistochemistry staining should be utilized for diagnosis and appropriate management.
