Invasive Lobular Carcinoma of the Breast With Rectal Metastasis: A Rare Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The rectum is a relatively unusual site for metastasis from invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) of the breast, and it carries dangers such as perforation and blockage. We reported a case of a 47-year-old female patient complaining of breast ILC for one year. Recently, the patient complained of abdominal distention, mild generalized abdominal pain, and weight loss. The abdominal ultrasound (US) showed moderate ascites without hepatomegaly, and ascitic tapping was positive for malignant cells. Lower colonoscopy showed a congested mass of 8 cm, and anal verge biopsy showed colonic mucosa laminal propria infiltrated with atypical cells and adenocarcinoma metastatic from the breast. In a patient with breast cancer, particularly ILC, who has developed new gastrointestinal tract (GIT) symptoms, there is significantly a high chance of rectal metastatic illness. Early detection is critical for successful treatment.
