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

One effort to combat the rising incidence of malignant melanoma is focused on early detection by the clinical and dermoscopic screening of melanocytic nevi. However, the interaction between nevi, which are congenital or acquired benign melanocytic proliferations, and melanoma is still enigmatic. On the one hand, the majority of melanomas are thought to form de novo, as only a third of primary melanomas are associated with a histologically identifiable nevus precursor. On the other hand, an increased number of melanocytic nevi is a strong risk factor for developing melanoma, including melanomas that do not derive from nevi. The formation of nevi is modulated by diverse factors, including pigmentation, genetic risk factors, and environmental sun exposure. While the molecular alterations that occur during the progression of a nevus to melanoma have been well characterized, many unanswered questions remain surrounding the process of nevus to melanoma evolution. In this review, we discuss clinical, histological, molecular, and genetic factors that influence nevus formation and progression to melanoma.
