The phyllodes menace-Variation in course, therapy, and appearance of phyllodes tumors in a case series of three patients.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. 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
Key Clinical Message: Early and complete surgical resection is the most important therapeutic and diagnostic measure. Adjuvant radiation is suggested for malign phyllode tumors, phyllode tumors larger than 10 cm or those with a low distance to the resection margins. Abstract: Phyllodes tumors are rare fibroepithelial tumors of the breast. Histologically, they are usually classified as benign, borderline or malignant, though these classifications do not necessarily reflect the clinical course of the disease. These tumors may stay undetected for years, or show sudden and rapid progression. There is currently no consistent therapy recommendation based upon histological findings, the localization of the tumor and/or whether it is recurrent. Using the examples of three patients, we show how courses and therapy may differ widely, and discuss this in the context of the current state of the literature.
