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

We report a case of myofibroblastoma (MFB) of the breast in a 58-year-old man who presented with a large painless lump in the left breast. Radiologic breast imaging showed a well-circumscribed mass with no microcalcifications. Microscopic examination revealed fascicles of spindle cell neoplasm with intervening thick bundles of hyalinized collagen and interspersed vessels. Pertinent immunohistochemistry markers showed positivity for CD34, estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and androgen receptor. A diagnosis of MFB of the breast was rendered. It is crucial to differentiate MFB from other entities in the breast like fibroadenoma, phyllodes tumor, gynecomastia, carcinoma and sarcoma for its appropriate management.
