Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Lynch Syndrome - An Overlooked Association.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Lynch syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by germline mutation affecting mismatch-repair genes. Genetic testing is performed selectively. Diagnosed individuals are to undergo surveillance to detect and manage Lynch syndrome-related cancers early in the course. Muir-Torre syndrome is a phenotypic variant of Lynch syndrome characterized by sebaceous neoplasms, keratoacanthoma, or both in addition to other Lynch syndrome-related cancers. Other neoplasms of the skin, such as squamous cell carcinoma, are not recognized as part of the Lynch syndrome tumor-spectrum. We report a case of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma occurring in a patient with Lynch syndrome and explore some of the characteristic features and significance of this association.
