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

We report a case of a man in his early 70s with a known history of prostate adenocarcinoma who presented with an undiagnosed skin lesion on his right lower lateral neck 6 years after his metastatic cancer diagnosis. The painless lesion was pink, lobulated and soft. The differential diagnosis included both primary and metastatic tumours. On resection, the histology and immunohistochemical profile of the lesion were consistent with metastatic prostate cancer. He has been managed with multiple lines of therapy since then due to progressive disease. In the 18 months, since his resection, however, he has had no clinical evidence of recurrent cutaneous metastases.
