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

A woman in her early fifties had regular follow-up for a medium-sized divided nevus of the eyelids which had undergone several surgical excisions during childhood for functional and esthetic reasons. Malignant transformation of the nevus occurred in the inferior eyelid, with the appearance of a new pigmented flat lesion. Histology showed in situ melanoma, and an NRAS activating mutation was found. A full-thickness excision of the inferior eyelid was performed, followed by reconstruction. Local recurrence of the melanoma occurred 1 year after surgery. Lifelong follow-up of divided nevi of the eyelids is recommended, even if very few cases of malignant transformation have been reported so far.
