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

Purpose: To understand the broader genetic landscape of male breast cancer (MBC), focusing on the utility of genome sequencing (GS) beyond Methods: Twenty-four patients with MBC underwent a multistep genetic analysis. Initial screening targeted Results: The GS analysis unveiled previously unrecognized pathogenic/likely pathogenic germline variants in Conclusion: Our findings extended the MBC genetic spectrum beyond BRCA1/2 and highlighted the intricate interplay of monogenic and polygenic predispositions, presenting a comprehensive MBC genomic profile.
