Therapeutic Effects of CDK4/6 Inhibitors in Gastric and Colonic Metastases From Breast Cancer: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Breast cancer often metastasizes to the lungs, bones, liver, and brain; however, gastric and colonic metastases from breast cancer are rare. Nevertheless, here, we present the case of a 50-year-old woman diagnosed with recurrent breast cancer, exhibiting gastric and colonic metastases that were detected when she experienced intermittent abdominal pain. The differentiation between primary gastric cancer and metastasis from breast cancer was made through immunohistochemical staining. The patient underwent treatment with palbociclib, a cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)4/6 inhibitor, and anastrozole, with no significant adverse effects. Subsequent upper and lower endoscopic examinations following the initiation of these treatments revealed tumor shrinkage in both gastric and colonic metastases. This case report presents the first instance in which morphological changes in gastrointestinal metastasis induced by CDK4/6 inhibitors could be evaluated.
