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 a case of 31-year-old female with no past medical history who presented with sudden onset discharging skin ulcer in left inframammary fold with erythema and swelling immediately after she came back from holiday for which she presented to the breast one stop clinic and underwent ultrasound-guided aspiration of the detected cystic lesion in the left breast with impression of breast abscess. Afterwards, as the result of cytology reporting as C5, ultrasound-guided Core-Needle Biopsy was performed, which confirmed poorly differentiated carcinoma of breast. Furthermore, similar necrotizing masses were found in axillary lymph nodes and Liver. The final diagnosis was concluded as poorly differentiated breast carcinoma with metastasis to axillary lymph nodes and the liver. This case reports a very uncommon presentation of breast carcinoma in a young patient with no past medical history, presenting with cystic necrotizing mass which is extremely rare in breast cancer. At the time of presentation, carcinoma had spread to the liver and axillary nodes.
