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
Nuclear medicine studies are often performed in patients with breast cancer; however, incidental radiotracer uptake in the breasts can be observed in patients with nonbreast malignancies. Benign and malignant lesions can be identified on planar, SPECT, and PET scans. This review will outline the molecular and radiographic imaging appearance of benign and malignant breast lesions on sestamibi scans, bone scans, radioiodine studies, as well as PET studies using fluorine 18 (
