Case Report: Metaplastic breast carcinoma with osseous and chondrodifferentiation in liver metastasis: a rare case and review of literature.

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
Background: Metaplastic carcinoma of the breast with mesenchymal differentiation (MCMD) is a type of metaplastic breast carcinoma (MpBC) that is very rare and aggressive. The present case provides valuable information for clinicians on this MpBC. Case presentation: A 41-year-old woman visited our hospital for a palpable painless mass in the left breast. Core needle biopsy (CNB) was performed, and the pathological result was infiltrating ductal carcinoma. Epirubicin (100 mg/m Conclusion: This case indicated that CNB may not always give an accurate diagnosis for MCMD. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with epirubicin, cyclophosphamide, or paclitaxel for MCMD may not be effective for patients showing no sensitivity to these drugs. In addition, regular postoperative follow-up plays an important role in the early detection of remote metastasis, and timely surgical excision of a single metastatic lesion in the liver can lead to long-term progression-free survival (PFS).
