1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Breast cancer is a public health problem with an annual incidence exceeding two million new cases leading to its classification as first cancer in women. Its clinical presentation is variable and the palpation of a breast nodule allows the diagnosis to be suspected in the majority of cases. The treatment is multidisciplinary and has health, economic, and psychological impacts. We report a sporadic case of a 60-year-old woman followed for epigastralgia for three months. The current history of the present disease goes back to three days before her admission with the onset of several episodes of hematemesis motivating the patient to consult the ER and then get admitted to the ER for hematemesis. The initial clinical examination showed an epigastric sensitivity in a hemodynamically stable patient. The endoscopy revealed a gastric tumor and immunohistochemistry confirmed the gastric localization from a breast cancer unrecognized by the patient and discovered at the careful clinical examination after having stabilized the patient's condition.
