1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundChondroid syringoma (CS) is a rare tumor of the apocrine or eccrine glands. CS of the lower back is rare, and its clinical manifestations are similar to those of lipoma, which is a common misdiagnosis for this disease. CASE SUMMARY: A 39-year-old woman presented with a 2-year history of an asymptomatic subcutaneous mass on the lower back. The lesions increased progressively over time. The patient denied any history. Dermatological examination showed that there was a subcutaneous mass, ranging from 3-4 cm in diameter, with a clear boundary on the lower back. The surface of the skin was smooth without ulceration or scaling. Histopathologic examination was consistent with the diagnosis of CS.

conclusionCS is a rare tumor of the apocrine or eccrine glands. It usually presents as a wellcircumscribed and single subcutaneous masses. Histopathology showed the tumor was located in the dermis, with nests, sheets, and cords of basal-like cells, mucin deposition, and chondroid structures. We herein report a case of CS located in the lower back. CS of the lower back is rare, and its clinical manifestations are similar to those of lipoma, for which it is commonly misdiagnosed.
