Epithelioid Rhabdomyosarcoma at the High Parietal Area of the Head: A Case Report.

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
Epithelioid rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare condition, which may be clinically misinterpreted as melanoma due to its morphological appearance. Careful morphological and immunohistochemical analysis play an important role in its diagnosis. This case report describes the clinicopathological features of an epithelioid RMS diagnosed at the high parietal area of the head. A 71-year-old male patient presented a red-brown pigmented ulcerative nodule in the high parietal region of the head. Previous biopsy and computer tomography imaging revealed a malignant melanoma in stage I (pT2, sN0, Mx). After tumor operation, histological and immunohistochemical analysis of the tumor were conducted. Histological analysis showed an erosive lesion with a monomorphic cell population containing small cells with prominent nucleoli. A positivity was confirmed for CD10, Vimentin, and Desmin. MyoD1 was detected, as well as a fluctuating signal for p53. Molecular analysis revealed a negativity for Sox-10, and a weak positivity for CK8/18 by absence of p40. Based on the morphological and immunohistochemical findings, the tumor was diagnosed as epithelioid RMS.
