Rare case of littoral cell angioma recognised on CT simulation for adjuvant radiation treatment for early stage breast cancer.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 with pathological anatomic/prognostic stage IA ER+/PR+/HER2- multifocal invasive mammary carcinoma with mixed ductal and lobular features of the left breast underwent lumpectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy. During evaluation of the CT simulation for adjuvant radiation (RT) treatment planning, a liver lesion and splenomegaly were noted. A subsequent MRI abdomen revealed a large, indeterminate splenic lesion with a wide differential and a benign liver cyst. The patient ultimately underwent splenectomy, with pathology consistent with littoral cell angioma, a rare entity associated with several malignancies. At last follow-up, 7 months after completion of RT, she remained cancer free while on anastrazole and was doing well clinically.
