Breast pseudoaneurysm following chest wall loop recorder removal.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2025. 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
Iatrogenic injury may lead to imaging findings mimicking malignancy or pathologies requiring emergent management when read out of context. This case report follows a 65-year-old female patient who was called back from screening mammography for a newly identified left breast mass. The patient had undergone recent removal of a left chest implantable loop recorder. On further workup, the lesion was identified as a breast pseudoaneurysm related to iatrogenic injury from prior loop recorder removal. The patient subsequently underwent percutaneous thrombin injection with interventional radiology leading to resolution of the pseudoaneurysm. This case highlights the rare incidence of breast pseudoaneurysms and emphasizes the importance of considering surgical history/iatrogenic etiology when evaluating breast masses. This will help avoid unnecessary exams and procedures leading to false positives and patient discomfort and anxiety.
