Encapsulated Papillary Carcinoma of the Male Breast: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 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
This case report aims to demonstrate the challenges associated with the diagnosis and treatment of papillary carcinomas of the male breast. Based on a comprehensive screening, which included a pathoanatomic examination of the surgical material after a simple Pirogov mastectomy (a surgical procedure where all or part of a breast and axillary lymph nodes are removed), the diagnosis was confirmed as encapsulated papillary cancer of the left breast. In the immunohistochemical study, the estrogen receptor was 100%, the progesterone receptor was 90%, and Ki-67 was 60%. Therefore, the patient was prescribed adjuvant hormone therapy with tamoxifen. There are no specific diagnostic clinical, imaging, or core needle biopsy features of encapsulated papillary carcinoma of the male breast. This often leads to more radical surgery for this low-grade neoplasm. Before choosing the extent of surgery, it is necessary to consider the primary size of the tumor along with an intraoperative assessment of the resection margins.
