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

Synchronous breast and lung cancer (SBLC) is a rare entity posing great challenges in diagnosis and treatment. A 58-year-old female was referred to the breast department of our hospital with a palpable mass in the right breast. Mammography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed bilateral, multifocal breast lesions. Core needle biopsy (CNB) revealed pleomorphic lobular breast cancer in the right breast and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in the left breast. Staging positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) showed a suspicious lesion in the left lung. CT-guided biopsy revealed lung adenocarcinoma. According to the multidisciplinary team (MDT) decision, the patient underwent a staged approach. First, she was scheduled for bilateral mastectomy and right sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). One month later, she underwent a left upper lobectomy and lymphadenectomy through a left posterior mini-thoracotomy. At present, two years later, the patient is currently in remission. Thus far, there are no clear and unified treatment guidelines for SBLC. Therefore, such cases should be discussed in MDT meetings, taking into account the stage of each cancer, the morbidity and mortality of each therapeutic approach, together with the patient's comorbidity and preference.
