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

backgroundAcanthosis nigricans (AN), Leser-Trélat sign, and tripe palm are all skin diseases. To date, reports of these appearing as a paraneoplastic syndrome in a gastric cancer patient are quite rare. CASE SUMMARY: We report the case of a 61-year-old man with darkened skin color in the face and torso with no obvious inducement after 1 year of treatment for Riehl's melanosis. He had 40 brown maculopapular eruptions on his face and the top of his head with obvious itching. Papillary wart-like hyperkeratosis with dark brown pigmentation was also observed on both sides of the areola. He had papilloma-like lesions on the face, around the orbit, and on the neck. His bilateral palms had small, smooth, papillary projections with millet-like appearance. Histopathological examination of the skin showed that the patient was suffering from AN, tripe palms, and Leser-Trélat sign. Gastroscopy showed the patient's cardia was affected, and pathological biopsy revealed that he had moderate-to-poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Computed tomography test results showed that his cardia wall had thickened. Based on these histological and skin characteristics, the patient was diagnosed with gastric cancer with AN, tripe palms, and Leser-Trélat sign.

conclusionResearchers should follow up on patients with malignant AN, Leser-Trélat sign, and tripe palms.
