Metastatic multifocal melanoma of multiple organ systems: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundMalignant melanoma is becoming more common among middle-aged individuals all over the world. Melanoma metastasis can be found in various organs, although metastases to the spleen and stomach are rare. Herein we present a rare metastatic multifocal melanoma, clinically and histologically mimicking lymphoma, with metastases of multiple organs. CASE SUMMARY: A 46-year-old Caucasian male with a history of nodular cutaneous malignant melanoma was presented with nausea, general weakness, shortness of breath, abdominal enlargement, and night sweating. The abdominal ultrasound revealed enlarged liver and spleen with multiple lesions. Computed tomography demonstrated multiple lesions in the lungs, liver, spleen, subcutaneous tissue, bones and a pathological lymphadenopathy of the neck. Trephine biopsy and the biopsy from the enlarged lymph node were taken. Tumor cells showed diffuse or partial positivity for melanocytic markers, such as microphthalmia - associated transcription factor, S100, HMB45 and Melan-A. The tumor harbored
conclusionThis case report highlights the clinical relevance of rare metastatic multifocal melanoma of multiple organ systems.
