CD44 Immunoexpression in the Progression of Actinic Keratosis and Cutaneous Squamouscarcinoma.
Article in Current health sciences journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
CD44 seems to confer the needed conditions for malignant neoplasms to grow and progress. The present study aims to investigate the role of CD44 expression in pre-invasive and invasive squamous lesions of the skin. We investigated 89 cases of preinvasive and invasive cutaneous lesions, of which 28 corresponded to actinic keratosis (KIN- keratinocyte intraepithelial neoplasia) with varying degrees of severity and 61 cases of squamous cell carcinoma with variable degrees of differentiation. The statistical analysis of CD44 immunoexpression indicated significantly higher values for KIN I and II compared to KIN III, as well as for KIN lesions in comparison with squamous cell carcinomas. Similar results were observed in well differentiated carcinomas compared to moderate and poorly differentiated lesions. These observations suggest that CD44 expression plays a role in the progression of cutaneous squamous neoplasia.
