Solid subtype of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast with multiple distant metastases: a case report and literature review.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Objective: To present a rare case of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast (ACCB), solid subtype, with multiple distant metastases, and to analyze its clinical management and differentiation from typical triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), highlighting the lack of standardized guidelines for this rare entity and providing insights for future therapeutic strategies. Methods: A 46-year-old female with ACCB was followed for 9 years, documenting metastatic progression, treatment responses, and survival outcomes. A literature review was conducted to compare ACCB and TNBC in terms of clinicopathological features, immunohistochemical profiles, metastatic patterns, and therapeutic strategies. Results: The patient exhibited aggressive behavior with metastases to the brain, lungs, liver, and kidneys. Systemic chemotherapy (albumin-bound paclitaxel and capecitabine) combined with radiotherapy stabilized the disease, achieving a 9-year survival with preserved quality of life. Conclusion: ACCB requires differentiation from TNBC due to its unique biological behavior and favorable prognosis. Breast-conserving surgery with radiotherapy may be preferable for localized disease, while systemic chemotherapy should be considered for metastatic solid subtypes. This case underscores the urgent need for consensus guidelines and further research on molecular profiling to refine therapeutic approaches.
