Spontaneous, idiopathic granulomatous mastitis in a pregnant patient: A case report and review of the literature.
Article in Heliyon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis is a rare breast condition of unclear etiology. Its course is often rapidly progressive, slow to resolve, and can have a high rate of recurrence. Clinical presentation can mimic breast abscess, infectious mastitis, and carcinoma of the breast, generating a diagnostic challenge. Histopathological analysis is required to make the diagnosis after common conditions are excluded. There is no standard treatment, however surgical excision, steroid treatment, and observation are commonly reported approaches. Here, we describe a complex case of a multiparous patient presenting with idiopathic granulomatous mastitis at 32 weeks gestation. In this review, we highlight the importance of collaboration amongst a multidisciplinary team for effective diagnosis and treatment. We discuss the use of oral corticosteroids in the antenatal period and illustrate the patient support required to both facilitate successful breastfeeding in the postpartum period and promote recovery.
