1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Key Clinical Message: Primary SCC of the breast is a very rare disease.Metastasis from elsewhere should be excluded first.The tumor is a very aggressive with poor prognosis.No standard treatment approaches are available.Managed by surgical excision followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Abstract: Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the breast is an exceedingly rare disease, and its management is still unclear. A-65-year-old lady presented with a progressive swelling of her right breast that started spontaneously. Other potential primary sites were ruled out. She was kept on a neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (AC-T protocol) of doxorubicin, adriamycin, and paclitaxel. Later, she was underwent modified radical mastectomy with axillary lymph node dissection. Her post-operative recovery was uneventful. Currently, she is followed up at oncology outpatient clinic.
