Fibroepithelial tumours of the breast-a review.
Review in Virchows Archiv : an international journal of pathology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
Fibroepithelial tumours of the breast are biphasic neoplasms composed of both epithelial and stromal elements, including the common fibroadenoma and the infrequent phyllodes tumour. The admixture of epithelium and stroma in the fibroadenoma shows intra- and pericanalicular patterns, and may display a variety of histological changes. Fibroadenoma variants include the cellular, juvenile, myxoid and complex forms. The cellular fibroadenoma may be difficult to distinguish from the benign phyllodes tumour. Stromal mitotic activity can be increased in fibroadenomas in the young and pregnant patients. Phyllodes tumours, neoplasms with the potential for recurrence, show an exaggerated intracanalicular growth pattern with broad stromal fronded architecture and stromal hypercellularity. They are graded into benign, borderline and malignant forms based on histological assessment of stromal features of hypercellularity, atypia, mitotic activity, overgrowth and the nature of the tumour borders. Classification of phyllodes tumours is imperfect, compounded by tumour heterogeneity with overlapping microscopic features among the different grades, especially in the borderline category. Malignant phyllodes tumours can metastasise and cause death. Determining which phyllodes tumours may behave aggressively has been difficult. The discovery of MED12 mutations in the pathogenesis of fibroepithelial tumours, together with other gene abnormalities in the progression pathway, has allowed refinements in diagnosis and prognosis.
