Giant breast phyllodes tumor with silent thromboembolism: A case report.
Article in Cancer reports (Hoboken, N.J.), 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
backgroundPhyllodes tumor (PT) is a solid fibroepithelial breast lesion with proliferation of stromal and epithelial elements, usually presents with a rapidly expanding feature. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) have been reported to increase the burden in terms of mortality and morbidity of malignant tumor, and associate with worsened survival. However, benign PTs with silent thromboembolism that have not yet been reported, we report an unusual case of massive benign PT that grew on the left side of the breast in a cauliflower-shaped form and presented severe chronic blood loss and deep VTE. CASE: A 37-year-old woman with uncontrolled pain presented a rapidly enlarging left breast mass, measuring approximately 30 × 20 × 15 cm
conclusionThis case is unique in that the giant breast mass presented with malignant character, was eventually pathologically confirmed to be benign PT, and it's rare that the benign tumor accompanied with silent thromboembolism. This finding describes the atypia features of giant benign PT and reminds the surgeon to consider the factor of VTE and risk when encountering ulcerative benign breast tumor and avoid excessive treatment.
