Choriocarcinoma metastatic to the skin: A rare occurrence associated with dismal outcome.
Article in Rare tumors, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Germ cell tumors (GCTs) are a histologically heterogeneous group of tumors that arise from the primitive germ cell of the embryonic gonad. Choriocarcinoma is a variant of GCTs that is prone to hematogenous metastasis to the liver, lung, and brain. Cutaneous metastasis in choriocarcinoma is rarely encountered with only a few cases reported in literature. We report the case of a 28-year-old male presenting with lower back pain that, upon further work-up, was diagnosed with pure choriocarcinoma of the testes. Around 9 months after his initial presentation, he developed a cutaneous back lesion. Microscopic examination confirmed the presence of choriocarcinoma composed of mononuclear cytotrophoblasts which interweave with multinucleated syncytiotrophoblasts. The patient passed away 3 weeks after the onset of cutaneous metastasis.
