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

objectiveWhen the clinical presentation is related to the metastatic mass and a radiologically solitary tumor focus is detected, especially in cases where clinical information is not taken into account or is insufficient, if a possible metastatic neoplasia is not kept in mind then it is possible to evaluate the tumor as a primary breast neoplasm. In this study, it is aimed to present our cases of non-hematopoietic metastatic neoplasms and to evaluate the clinicopathological features that may aid in distinguishing metastatic from primary neoplasms. MATERIAL AND

methodsThis study includes cases diagnosed with metastatic non-hematopoietic breast neoplasm in breast resection materials in our center, between the years 2010-2023. All cases were analyzed retrospectively by evaluating clinicopathological features.

resultsOf the 15 subjects included in the study, 11 (73%) were female and 4 (27%) were male. The mean age of the patients were 46.9 ranged from 22 to 63 years. The most frequent metastatic malignancy was carcinoma (60%), followed by melanoma (33%) and sarcoma (7%). Of the 9 patients with metastatic carcinoma, the primary tumor originated from the lungs in 4, from gastrointestinal system in 2, female genital tract in 2, and kidney in 1 patient. Sarcoma diagnosis was given in a single patient and the histology was a leiomyosarcoma originating from kidney.

conclusionA careful histomorphological and immunohistochemical evaluation and a detailed examination of the clinicoradiological data are critical to establish the right course in patient management, treatment plan and to correctly predict the prognosis.
