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

An 80-year-old man with a history of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) was referred to our department for a solitary lung nodule. The nodule was surgically resected and diagnosed as SCC. Because the lung lesion and a previous skin lesion showed similar histological findings, the origin of the lung tumor was uncertain. Next-generation sequencing using a targeted driver oncogene panel was applied for the further examination. The lung lesion was diagnosed as primary lung SCC, as the two tumors possessed distinct somatic mutations in TP53. Recent advances in clinical sequencing have enabled us to obtain an accurate diagnosis in pathologically challenging cases.
