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

Cutaneous signet-ring cell squamous cell carcinoma (SRCSCC) is a rare variant, most commonly occurring in the head and neck. We report a case of a 66-year-old transgender woman with an ulcerated growing facial mass measuring 5.6 × 4.0 × 2.0 cm. Histological analysis showed features consistent with SRCSCC. Immunohistochemical analysis showed positive staining for high-molecular-weight cytokeratin, estrogen receptor (1-2+ in 10%), E-cadherin (mostly positive with partial loss), and p40 and negative staining for Ber EP-4, cytokeratin 7, low-molecular-weight cytokeratin, mucicarmine, Alcian blue PAS, HER2, and MUC4. The tumor had invaded the perineurium, lymphovascular spaces, and subcutaneum. Additionally, microsatellite instability testing was negative. This case adds to the limited knowledge of this poorly characterized entity.
