Benign Giant Phyllodes Tumours Presenting as Fungating Breast Masses.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 masses presenting as fungating growths usually represent advanced malignancy. One remarkable exception is a benign phyllodes tumour. These tumours of stromal origin often exhibit rapid growth, resulting in pressure necrosis at the summit of the tumor causing fungation. It is difficult to differentiate between benign and malignant types clinically. Here, we describe two cases in which patients presented with fungating growth similar to a case of carcinoma breast, which turned out to be cases of benign phyllodes tumours. We would like to highlight the clinical features that differentiate between benign and malignant fungating growth and provide a brief update on the latest treatment modalities for phyllodes tumours.
