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

We report 3 cases of patients with a history of extra-mammary cancer who presented with breast nodules, leading to diagnostic challenges and occasional misleading imaging findings. These cases highlight the significance of radiologists considering breast metastases as a potential component of the differential diagnosis when assessing patients with a history of cancer who exhibit palpable breast nodules. Furthermore, these cases underscore the importance of integrating various imaging techniques with histological and immunohistochemical analyses of the lesions to achieve precise diagnoses, ultimately ensuring the highest quality of care for these patients.
