Recognizing invasive breast carcinoma of no special type with medullary pattern.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Invasive breast carcinoma of no special type (IBC-NST) with medullary pattern is an uncommon histologic type of invasive breast carcinoma. It is associated with high-grade, poorly differentiated tumor cells that form large sheets of irregular confluent tumor cells associated with a prominent lymphocytic infiltrate. Patients with IBC-NST with medullary pattern are often postmenopausal women with a high body mass index and multiparity. We report the case of a 71-year-old woman who presented for routine screening mammography and breast mass suspicious for malignancy, initially thought to be invasive ductal carcinoma with an associated prominent lymphoid infiltrate. However, it was ultimately diagnosed as IBC-NST with medullary pattern, and radiologic imaging (particularly ultrasound and mammography) along with pathology review were critical in making the diagnosis. We make the case of the importance of radiographic imaging in diagnosing this condition, as the prognosis of IBC-NST with medullary pattern is typically more favorable compared to IBC-NST.
