Nail Cancer: Review of the Two Main Types of an Underestimated Disease.
Review in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Neoplastic lesions (benign or malignant) in the nail region are rare when compared to lesions in the rest of the skin. Despite advances in diagnostic modalities, their diagnosis is frequently delayed or overlooked for days, months, or even years when they are misrecognized or when their approach is not appropriate. Undoubtedly, malignant tumors are the most important lesions since an inopportune diagnosis or treatment can drastically change the patient's prognosis. A review of all the scientific evidence on the two main malignant neoplasms of the nail apparatus (melanoma and squamous cell carcinoma) was carried out using the PubMed search engine from 2003 to 2022, in order to expose the appropriate diagnostic approach and treatment of these nail lesions to avoid delays that obscure the prognosis of patients. This review does not include reconstruction modalities after lesion resection, but the emphasis is placed on the great functional impact they produce. Surgical treatment in the early stages is the most important when talking about prognosis and emphasizing it; systemic oncological management of advanced stages is not so deep.
