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

Many people suffer from different skin diseases, which can be diverse and varied. Most skin diseases cause disorders in the skin, such as changes in color, texture, and appearance manifesting in spots, swelling, scaling, ulcers, etc. One of the diseases that represents a serious health problem is skin cancer. The most dangerous skin cancer is malignant melanoma, which can cause death if not detected early. Therefore, development of new and accurate diagnosis methodologies to increase the chance of early detection is important. In this work, an analysis to discriminate between malignant melanoma and three types of benign skin lesions-melanocytic nevus, dermatofibroma, and seborrheic keratosis-is realized by calculating spectral indexes based on the real and imaginary parts of a fractional nonlinear filter obtained by affecting the modulus of the fractional Fourier transform by an exponent
