Clinical characteristics and therapeutic analysis of 51 patients with Marjolin's ulcers.

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.
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
Marjolin's ulcers, which are epidermoid carcinomas arising on non-healing scar tissue, may be of various pathological types, including squamous cell carcinoma. The pathogenesis of squamous cell carcinoma arising in an ulcer differs from that of the primary cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. This squamous cell carcinoma is aggressive in nature, and has a high rate of metastasis. Between January 2001 and September 2013, 51 patients with Marjolin's ulcers were admitted to the Departments of Plastic Surgery of the Affiliated Foshan Hospital and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. The ulcers included 43 cases of squamous cell carcinoma, six of melanoma, one of basal cell carcinoma and one of epithelioid sarcoma. The clinical data of these patients were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were followed until mortality. Among the patients with squamous cell carcinoma, 30.23% exhibited sentinel lymph node metastasis and 11.63% had distant metastasis. Among the patients with melanoma, 66.67% had sentinel lymph node metastasis and 33.33% had distant metastasis. Sentinel lymph node metastasis was successfully detected in 11 patients with Marjolin's ulcer using
