Liver resection for breast cancer-related liver metastases: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 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
introductionBreast cancer liver metastasis presents a significant challenge in clinical oncology, with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. This case series study explores the extended survival achieved in breast cancer patients with liver metastases through a combination of surgical and medical interventions. CASE PRESENTATION: We present three cases of Javanese female patients with breast cancer (51 years old, 42 years old, and 55 years old) with liver metastases who underwent hepatic resection followed by systemic therapy. The cases illustrate successful outcomes with disease-free survival ranging from 5 to 31 months post-surgery. Key prognostic factors associated with improved survival include prolonged interval between initial diagnosis and detection of liver metastasis, liver-limited disease, positive response to preoperative systemic therapy, and expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors in the metastatic lesions.
conclusionThese findings underscore the potential efficacy of a multidisciplinary approach integrating local hepatectomy with systemic therapy in selected patients with breast cancer liver metastasis. Further research is warranted to identify optimal patient selection criteria and refine treatment strategies for improved outcomes.
