Mucinous carcinoma in an octogenarian: Treatment and management of breast cancer in the elderly.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Age is a risk factor for breast cancer in females, and over 60% of female breast cancer deaths occur in those aged 65 and older. As the population in the United States continues to age, it is expected that there will be a commensurate increase in the number of women diagnosed with breast cancer, making understanding of effective treatment and management of breast cancer in the elderly essential. Here, we review the treatment and management of early breast cancer in the elderly. We report a case of invasive mucinous carcinoma in an 80-year-old female detected on routine clinical breast exam by her primary care physician. Mucinous carcinoma of the breast is a type of rare invasive neoplasm that generally carries an excellent prognosis. Following an ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy, a right breast needle localized segmental mastectomy was performed and the patient was prescribed an aromatase inhibitor for hormone-receptor positive tumor. After a follow-up of 8 years, the patient remains free of recurrence or metastasis and vibrantly living meaningful daily life.
