[Unusual localisation of rare primary skin carcinoma: a case report].
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 2022. 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
Adnexal carcinomas are rare, accounting for less than 1% of skin carcinomas. Sclerosus carcinoma of the sweat glands was first described by Goldstein et al. in 1982. We here report the case of a 33-year-old female patient with a retracted perianal skin lesion. Histological examination of perilesional skin biopsy, immunohistochemistry, and negative results of laboratory tests, radiological and endoscopic investigations allowed for the diagnosis of eccrine sclerosus carcinoma. This is a rare tumor, usually characterized by facial localization and slow but aggressive progression. It poses problems in differential diagnosis with benign and malignant tumors; hence the challenge encountered by pathologist of suspecting this carcinoma in patients with any sclerotic and infiltrating skin lesion characterized by slow progression, in a context of preservation of the general state and in the absence of neoplastic history as well as of feeling free to ask for new deep biopsies when in doubt.
