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

backgroundGynecomastia denotes the benign proliferation of glandular breast tissue and stands as a recognized risk factor for male breast cancer. Nonetheless, the underlying carcinogenic mechanisms orchestrating the progression from gynecomastia to cancer remain poorly understood.

methodsThis study employed single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to meticulously dissect the cellular landscape of gynecomastia and unravel potential associations with male breast cancer at a single-cell resolution. Pseudotime and evolutionary analyses were executed to delineate the distinct features characterizing gynecomastia and male breast cancer. The TCGA database, along with cell-cell communication analysis and immunohistochemistry staining, was harnessed to validate differential gene expression, specifically focusing on CD13.

resultFrom the copy number variation profiles and evolutionary tree, we inferred shared mutation characteristics (18p

conclusionsOur investigation provides novel insights into the evolutionary progression from gynecomastia to male breast cancer, shedding light on the pivotal role of CD13 in driving this transition. The identification of CD13 as a potential therapeutic target suggests the feasibility of CD13-targeted interventions, specifically tailored for male breast cancer treatment.
