Cutaneous metastases as a presenting sign of metastatic NSCLC.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Cutaneous metastases are rare and often late signs of an internal malignancy; however, this can be the presenting sign in very rare cases. These typically have a characteristic appearance and distribution based on the underlying malignancy but can be difficult to distinguish from other malignant or benign dermatoses. We report a case of a 69-year-old female who presented for elective excision of two cutaneous, fast-growing lesions on the chest wall. The patient's past medical history is significant for a 45-pack-year smoking history. Pre-operative chest radiograph revealed a right upper lobe mass, with the lesions ultimately representing cutaneous metastases of a non-small-cell lung cancer. Although cutaneous metastases have been reported, difficulty remains in distinguishing other causes of cutaneous lesions from cutaneous metastases in the predominantly asymptomatic patient.
