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

A 68-year-old woman with a breast mass was referred to our hospital. Imaging studies showed an oval well-defined mass, 1.3 cm in size, in her left lower outer quadrant of the breast. Core needle biopsy with immunohistochemical staining showed atypical spindle cells forming solid nests with necrosis and papillary lesions, leading to the tentative and pre-operative diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma. Due to the absence of daughter nodules, extensive ductal spread, and lymphadenopathy on imaging evaluation, the patient underwent breast-conserving surgery and sentinel node biopsy, resulting in negative surgical margins and no lymph node involvement. Post-operative pathological examination showed triple negative atypical cells with squamous differentiation, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), with cystic parts and a small amount of low-grade adenosquamous cell carcinoma (LGASC), both encompassing the cystic parts in a contiguous fashion. No cases with synchronous SCC and LGASC in the breast have been reported to date. An etiologic correlation between SCC and LGASC should be further evaluated.
