Advanced Presentation of Homeopathically treated Giant Melanoma: A Case Report.
Article in The Journal of clinical and aesthetic dermatology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We report the case of a 47-year-old woman who presented to the emergency department with a 9.7cm × 8.3cm melanoma on her foot, which impeded her ability to walk. The patient had been treating the fungating mass with black salve after seeking treatment from a homeopathic physician when first noticing a mole increasing in size several years previously. Additionally, we examine published reports of giant melanoma in the literature and investigate the possible maleficence of black salve treatment.
