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

Molecular subtype discordance in bilateral synchronous breast cancer is a relatively uncommon entity that poses unique therapeutic challenges. Here we report the case of a 35-year-old woman who presented to our clinic with synchronous bilateral breast cancer (SBBC), with stage IIA triple-negative disease in the right breast and a stage IIB hormone-sensitive tumor in the left breast. She was treated with bilateral modified radical mastectomy and axillary node dissection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and a five-year regimen with daily tamoxifen. To date, the patient remains asymptomatic and free of disease recurrence 78 months after initiating treatment. Little is known about SBBC with a discordant molecular subtype and reports about this entity are scarce. Future studies aimed at identifying the optimal management strategy for this disease are needed.
