A case of matrix-producing carcinoma of the breast treated with preoperative chemotherapy.

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
Background: Matrix-producing carcinoma (MPC) is a rare tumor accounting for 0.1% of all breast cancers. Although MPC is usually triple-negative breast cancer, there have been few reports of preoperative chemotherapy for MPC that is considered chemotherapy-resistant. Herein, we report a case of MPC that was successfully treated with preoperative chemotherapy. Case Description: The patient was a 47-year-old woman diagnosed with right multiple breast cancer, clinical stage IIA. One of the tumors was identified as MPC and the other was invasive ductal carcinoma. The maximum tumor diameter of MPC was 3.8-cm. On immunohistochemistry, the tumor cells of MPC tested negative for estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PgR), and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). The Ki67 index was 90%. Preoperative chemotherapy was performed. EC (epirubicin 90 mg/m Conclusions: Although our case of MPC was successfully treated with preoperative chemotherapy, the standard of care for MPC remains uncertain. Development of a new targeted therapy for MPC is warranted.
