A secondary jejunal malignant melanoma from nasal mucosal melanoma: Case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Melanomas most commonly localized in the skin can arise anywhere in the body, and approximately 5% of all melanomas appear in other sites of mucosal surfaces out of skin. Primary melanoma from nasal mucosa is quite rare. We present this case: a 46-year-old man had complained a pain in the left upper abdomen for 2 months when he was admitted to the Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital. The pain was paroxysmal and enhanced when eating. There was no nausea, vomiting, or anorexia. There had been no change in weight in previous months. This patient had a past history of surgery for nasal mucosal malignant melanoma 2 years ago. Abdominal enhanced computed tomography (CT) indicated that a mass originated from small bowel and occupied the left upper abdomen. The patient underwent a laparotomy during which a black lesion measuring about 5 cm × 5 cm × 4 cm was found at the jejunum and resected totally together with partial jejunum. The patient was eventually diagnosed as secondary jejunal malignant melanoma from nasal mucosal melanoma. For patients with a history of melanoma, gastrointestinal metastasis should be considered when patients develop gastrointestinal symptoms. In addition, we recommend positive anti-tumor therapy after surgery.
