Surgical Excision Versus Medical Management of Primary Breast Lymphoma: A 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 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
Lymphoma of the breast accounts for 0.4-0.5% of all breast-located cancers and is found in a similar fashion to breast cancers. Here we present a 74-year-old woman who presented for a biopsy of a breast mass found on a routine mammogram, which was found to be a primary breast lymphoma. According to current practice guidelines, medical therapy is favorable for the definitive management of primary breast lymphomas. However, biopsy specimen cytology found neoplastic cells positive for human germinal center-associated lymphoma, a nonspecific marker for various types of lymphomas. Without a definitive classification of lymphoma, optimal medical therapy could not be achieved. Therefore, a decision was made to undergo a lumpectomy of the mass, which yielded a specimen that was found pathologically favorable for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. With this information, the patient was referred to follow-up oncology for adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
