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

Breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women. Gastrointestinal tract metastases are uncommon and might be misidentified as primary carcinoma.A noteworthy case-study involved 53-year-old-woman complaining from epigastric pain, ascites and overall health decline. Initial investigations were inconclusive, prompting laparoscopic peritoneal biopsies which revealed independent cell proliferation. Subsequently, a second look upper digestive endoscopy showed multiple gastric ulcerations suggestive of gastric carcinoma. Histologic examination confirmed independent cell proliferation with estrogen receptors expression, a characteristic feature of breast carcinoma. Further investigations led to bilateral invasive lobular breast carcinoma diagnosis. Epirubicin cycophosphamide was prescribed after progression under letrozole ribocilib therapy.This case aims to raise awareness among clinicians about the importance of ruling out breast cancer in patients with peritoneal carcinosis and paying attention to digestive symptoms in breast cancer patients with careful gastric endoscopic examination to avoid misdiagnosis.
