Super giant basal cell carcinoma in an autistic patient: A case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Basal cell carcinoma is the most common skin cancer in the world and is generally treated when small in size with an excellent prognosis. Rarely, basal cell carcinoma will grow to be larger than 5 cm, at which point they are termed giant basal cell carcinoma. Giant basal cell carcinoma comprises only 0.5% of all basal cell carcinoma, but is associated with impaired quality of life and increased risk of metastasis. When a basal cell carcinoma grows to over 20 cm in size, it is termed super giant basal cell carcinoma. Here, we report a case of both a super-giant basal cell carcinoma and a giant basal cell carcinoma developing over 10-12 years on the upper back and anterior chest wall of an autistic male. Generally, this presentation is associated with neglect on the part of the patient. This case report demonstrates a super-giant basal cell carcinoma developing secondary to patient neglect in the context of comorbid mental illness.
