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

introductionEccrine poroma is a benign adnexal neoplasm originating from epidermal sweat ducts mainly affecting the palmoplantar skin, buttock as a location of origin of poroma has rarely been reported, it is the first reported case of recurrent poroma in this site. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We report an unusual case of eccrine poroma in the gluteal region of a 62 years old female associated with gluteal abscess, surgically excised with histologically clear margins, then recurred after one and half year with a given history of mild trauma. DISCUSSION: Given the uncommonness of these neoplasms, there stays a general lack of data on pathogenesis, atypical presentation, atypical sites, recurrence and risk of malignant transformation into porocarcinoma.

conclusionGluteal skin is an unusual location for a benign poroma. Early recognition and appropriate treatment at the initial presentation by complete resection with histopathology confirmation and follow-up are crucial to ruling out other diagnoses, such as lesions of malignant transformation.
