The incidences of other primary cancers in patients with mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome.

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
introductionCutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) are a diverse group of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas with malignant T lymphocytes infiltrating the skin. Mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS) belong to the group of CTCLs, among others. In previous studies it was suggested that primary cancers more often occur in patients with cutaneous lymphoma.
aimTo analyse the incidence of other malignancies in CTCL patients. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe evaluation of the coexistence of primary malignant neoplasms in CTCL patients was conducted by analysis of the patients' database, with diagnosis of mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome, treated in the Dermatological Department of the Medical University of Gdansk between 2010 and 2018.
resultsAmong CTCL patients, 177 were diagnosed with MF/SS (stage MFIA 37.61%, MFIB 30.77%, MFIIA 0.85%, MFIIB 11.11%, MFIII 8.55% MFIV 4.27%; SS 6.84%). The group was characterized by a male-to-female ratio of 1.21 : 1. 16.94% of MF/SS patients had one co-existing cancer, while 1.13% of patients had 2 co-existing cancers; the most common were basal cell carcinoma, lymphomatoid papulosis, lung cancer, and B-cell lymphoma. The obtained data highlight that MF/SS is associated with increased risk of cancer.
conclusionsOur study suggests that special attention should be paid to careful examination of CTCL patients - what force to perform solid clinical examination, the X-ray chest examination, abdomen USG, mammography, and others, even in early stages of MF/SS. Clinicians should be aware of the coexistence of other neoplasms such as lung, skin, and breast cancer.
