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

Mixed tumor of the skin (MTS) is a rare benign tumor of the sweat glands with a reported frequency of 0.01% to 0.098%. The objective of the study is to investigate clinicopathological and immunohistochemical features of mixed tumor of the skin.This was a retrospective study of 21 patients diagnosed with MTS at the Institute of Dermatology and Venereology of Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from 1980 to 2016. Pathological sections of all cases were reread and the diagnosis was verified.There were 14 males (67%) and 7 females (33%). MTS affected the face. The lesions were skin-colored or lightly red, with no subjective symptoms in most cases. Histopathologically, the tumors consisted of epithelial and interstitial components. The epithelium was mainly composed of cubic or polygonal cells, which can be seen within the tubule-like structures with bilayer epithelium. The inner cells mainly expressed cytokeratin and other epithelial markers. The outer cells expressed epithelial and mesenchymal markers. The outer cells expressed S-100, P63, and glial fibrillary acidic protein. The tumors showed interstitial mucus-like and fibrosis changes, and some parts had cartilage-like changes.Pathological diagnosis is particularly important because the clinical symptoms of MTS lack specificity.
