Transformation of a Benign-Appearing Fibroepithelial Lesion to a Giant Malignant Phyllodes Tumor of the Breast.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
This is a case of a woman who presented with a left breast mass that was initially diagnosed as fibroadenoma on core biopsy and, after three years without any surgical intervention, was found to be a malignant phyllodes tumor. Initially, a core needle biopsy of the mass showed probable fibroadenoma. Because of the initial benign seeming diagnosis and the need to treat her tongue cancer, the patient did not recognize the need for a recommended surgical consultation and excision. Three years later, she presented after the mass had enlarged to encompass nearly the whole left breast. Core needle biopsy revealed spindle cell proliferation with scattered benign-looking tubules. Due to the large size of the mass, she underwent a total mastectomy, and the final pathology demonstrated a malignant phyllodes tumor. This case demonstrates a case of progression of a benign-appearing fibroepithelial lesion to a malignant phyllodes tumor three years later.
