Malignant phyllodes tumour of the breast with early recurrence in a young patient.

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
A young woman in her 20s was found to have a left breast malignant phyllodes tumour by ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy, after identifying a palpable lump. She then underwent lumpectomy excision with >1 cm gross margins; however, final pathology demonstrated <1 cm margins at the superior margin. She then underwent re-excision of superior and medial margins to ensure at least a 1 cm margin. Biopsy tract was not excised at initial or re-excision surgery. Approximately 6 weeks after completion lumpectomy, the patient noted a new palpable mass near the previous biopsy site and underwent punch biopsy. Final pathology of this new mass was concordant with early recurrence. The patient then underwent lumpectomy of the new mass along with excision of the overlying skin and biopsy tract with >1 cm margins.
