Malignant phyllodes tumour of the breast mimicking endometriosis.
Article in Virchows Archiv : an international journal of pathology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
A 63-year-old woman presented with a clinically malignant mass. Core biopsy showed features resembling endometriosis. The glands were GATA3 and oestrogen receptor positive consistent with mammary origin and had no myoepithelial layer. The excision also showed a fibroepithelial component with stromal overgrowth, frequent mitoses and invasive margin consistent with a malignant phyllodes tumour. KMT2D and SETD2 mutations were present in both the conventional phyllodes tumour and endometriosis-like areas and are also described in endometriosis raising interesting questions about these lesions. This unusual pattern is a potential diagnostic pitfall, so it is helpful to be aware of it.
