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

A 52-year-old female presented with complaints of a painful left breast mass. On examination, a tender mass was noted in the left breast. Bilateral diagnostic mammography revealed an irregular, dense mass with indistinct borders in the left breast. A similar but smaller dense mass was also identified in the right breast. Ultrasound examination confirmed a heterogeneous, hypoechoic, irregular, microlobulated, antiparallel mass in the left breast. A smaller mass with similar characteristics was also observed in the right breast. Histopathology of both breast masses revealed bilateral diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. PET/CT demonstrated abnormally increased metabolic activity only in the larger left breast mass, while the contralateral mass was not metabolically avid. The patient received 6 cycles of R-CHOP chemotherapy. A follow-up mammography study performed 1 year after the initial diagnosis showed complete resolution of the breast masses bilaterally across all imaging modalities.
