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

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided paracentesis can safely assist with diagnosis of invasive lobular breast carcinoma after appropriate consideration of infection-related complications. This is a case of metastatic breast cancer presenting without clinical or radiographic breast findings. The patient presented with nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms with normal endoscopic appearance, but malignant histology. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided paracentesis aided in the diagnosis of metastatic lobular breast carcinoma and can be integrated into the diagnostic armamentarium of advanced endoscopists. In addition, this case highlights an atypical case of Lynch syndrome presenting with index extraintestinal malignancy.
