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

Two cases of intralobular carcinoma of the breast showing myoepithelial cell differentiation are reported. One was an in situ lesion localized within a fibroadenoma; the second was predominantly in situ, but areas of invasion were present. The neoplastic cells had round to ovoid nuclei and were polygonal to spindle in shape displaying glycogen rich clear cytoplasm. Alpha-smooth muscle actin was present in the cytoplasm of the neoplastic cells in both cases. In one case the same cells displayed cytoplasmic microfilaments at electron microscopic level. Intralobular growth of neoplastic myoepithelial cells has never been described in the literature, and this line of differentiation has to be added to the endocrine and apocrine features occasionally observed in in situ lobular carcinomas of the breast.
