Mohs micrographic surgery for periocular skin cancer: a single-institution experience.
Article in Archives of dermatological research, 2023. 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
Periocular skin cancers require both effective and tissue-sparing treatment to minimize morbidity and preserve eyelid and lacrimal system function. We aim to define outcomes of periocular tumors treated with Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) and factors associated with poor outcomes after surgery. This is a retrospective cohort study of all periocular tumors treated with MMS at an academic, large metropolitan-based referral center from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2018. For 316 tumors from 307 patients, 75.3% of cases were basal cell carcinoma (BCC) (n = 238), 20.9% were squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (n = 66), 2.5% were melanoma (n = 8), and 1.3% were primary adnexal carcinoma (n = 4). Over a mean follow-up of 47 months (range 12-108 months), local recurrence of two BCCs was observed. There were no recurrences for SCC, adnexal carcinoma, or melanoma. For BCC, previously treated tumors had higher risk for recurrence after MMS. AJCC 8 T stage was not associated with poor outcomes after MMS for periocular carcinoma or melanoma. Mohs micrographic surgery offers excellent cure rates for periocular cutaneous tumors. For basal cell carcinoma, previously treated lesions were associated with additional recurrence after MMS.
