Bilateral breast metastases from small cell lung carcinoma: Case report and review of the literature.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 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
Differentiation of primary versus secondary breast cancer can be difficult, with the relative rarity of the latter representing a diagnostic challenge. Here, we present a case of small cell lung cancer with synchronous bilateral breast metastases in a 52-year-old female. There are less than 5 other cases of small cell lung cancer with bilateral breast metastases reported in the literature to date. The breast metastases represented the first clinical and imaging manifestation of malignancy in our case. We present the patient's disease course including multi-modal imaging, histopathologic analysis, and clinical management. We aim to highlight the entity of secondary breast cancer and how multidisciplinary collaboration can help arrive at the diagnosis, which is critical for prognosis and treatment planning in this patient population.
