It's Not Always Gynecomastia: A Case of Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma Presenting as Breast Mass in a Male Patient.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We report a case of diffuse large B-cell breast lymphoma that presented as a palpable breast lump in a male patient evaluated with digital mammography and targeted breast ultrasound (US) but ultimately confirmed by US-guided core needle biopsy. We will discuss the appropriate workup algorithm for a palpable breast lump in a male patient as outlined by the American College of Radiology (ACR) Appropriateness Criteria. While gynecomastia is the most common reason for a new palpable breast lump in a male patient, male breast cancer (including lymphoma and metastasis) can have a similar appearance on imaging. Our goal is to provide clarity on proper radiographic assessment protocols and imaging features of palpable breast masses in men by emphasizing the role of anatomical location and symmetry in distinguishing it from more common causes, such as gynecomastia, in future diagnostic imaging scenarios.
