Recurrent Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma with Direct Invasion of the Pleura: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) is the second most common skin cancer in the United States, second only to basal cell carcinoma. While majority of patients have a favorable outcome after surgical resection, a subset of patients carry a higher risk of local recurrence, distant metastasis, and mortality. In this article, we present an unusual case of a 54-year-old male who had trunk cSCC at the site of burn wound that recurred after surgical resection and radiotherapy. Interestingly the cSCC disease recurrence presented with respiratory symptoms secondary to malignant pleural effusion from direct invasion of pleura as the tumor eroded through the chest wall. The patient died within a few weeks from progressive disease. Despite the high incidence rate of cSCC, there is a paucity of randomized controlled trials to guide evidence-based management of cSCC in recurrent and metastatic disease.
