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

Breast implant-associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma (BIA-ALCL) is a rare T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma primarily associated with textured breast implants. Its pathological hallmarks include CD30 positivity, ALK negativity, and clonal T-cell receptor gene rearrangement. Complete surgical excision is the primary treatment modality, and early diagnosis combined with standardized management is associated with a favorable prognosis. We report a case of BIA-ALCL in a 47-year-old female who presented with breast swelling 20 years after receiving textured breast implants. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first documented case of BIA-ALCL in mainland China. Preoperative aspiration was not suggestive of BIA-ALCL, and the diagnosis was ultimately confirmed through histopathological examination of the capsule tissue. Based on a comprehensive postoperative systemic evaluation, no adjuvant therapy was required.
