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

Cutaneous apocrine carcinoma (CAC) is a rare type of malignant adnexal tumour with only scattered reports. We report a 52-year-old male patient of CAC in groin with bilateral lymph node metastasis. The patient had a left inguinal subcutaneous mass 3 cm × 2 cm in size for 4 years, and received a wide local excision of the tumour. Pathological sectioning suggested CAC. The immunohistochemical staining revealed GCDFP15 (+), 34BE12 (+), ER (+), PR (+), CK7 (+), Ki67 (5%-10%), HER2/Neu (-), P53 (-), P63 (-), and CK20 (-). Two subcutaneous masses of 2 cm × 1 cm were found below the original incision 10 months after the operation, and regional lymphadenectomy was performed. During the outpatient follow-up, B-ultrasound examination showed abnormal enlargement of the right inguinal lymph nodes 17 months later, and right inguinal lymphadenectomy was performed. No evidence of recurrent or metastasis disease has been seen after a follow-up period of 16 months till now. We review the literature on pathological and immunohistochemical study of CAC and discuss its diagnostic dilemma.
