[B3 lesions of the breast: histological, clinical, and epidemiological aspects : Update].
Review in Pathologie (Heidelberg, Germany), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
B3 lesions of the breast are a heterogeneous group of lesions with uncertain malignant potential encompassing a broad spectrum of histologically distinct alterations that often pose challenging decisions if diagnosed on the preoperative core or vacuum biopsies. B3 lesions are mostly detected due to mammographic calcifications or mass lesions and, in most cases, encompass a spectrum of atypical lesions such as atypical ductal hyperplasia, classic lobular neoplasia, flat epithelial atypia, papillomas, fibroepithelial tumors, and rarely other lesions such as mucocele-like lesions, atypical apocrine lesions, and rare stromal proliferations. The use of immunohistochemical stains (estrogen receptors, basal cytokeratin, myoepithelial markers, and stromal marker panel) is useful in the differentiation of these lesions and allowing proper classification. Regarding clinical management of B3 lesions, the radiological-pathological correlation of the given entity plays the most important key element for the proper next diagnostic and therapeutic step.
