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

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer and human malignancy. Although most BCCs are easily managed, some are aggressive locally, require Mohs micrographic surgery, or can even metastasize. In the latter, resistance to Sonic Hedgehog inhibitors may occur. Despite their frequent occurrence in clinical practice, their transcriptional landscape remains poorly understood. By analyzing BCC RNA sequencing data according to clinically important features (all BCCs versus normal skin, high-risk versus low-risk BCCs based solely on histopathological subtypes with aggressive features, advanced versus non-advanced BCCs, and vismodegib-resistant versus vismodegib-sensitive tumors), we have identified novel differentially regulated genes and new targetable pathways implicated in BCC tumorigenesis. Pathways as diverse as
