Perianal basosquamous carcinoma treated with radiation therapy, a case report.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Perianal basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is very rare and estimated to account for 0.08% of all BCC and 0.02% of all anorectal neoplasms. Perianal lesions are more likely to be squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) as BCC usually develops on areas of skin exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light such as the face and arms. Proper diagnosis with the assistance of immunohistochemistry (IHC) stains to distinguish the two entities can help inform the suitable course of treatment. Case Description: Our case is an 82-year-old male with a history of cutaneous BCC on the arms and trunk presenting with a symptomatic perianal lesion. Initial biopsy demonstrated BCC with subsequent IHC studies differentiating from basaloid SCC. Standard treatment includes wide local excision (WLE) but given his poor performance status, radiation only was recommended. He was successfully treated and tolerated 30 Gy in 5 daily fractions. Conclusions: Radiation only is a unique and feasible non-surgical treatment for basosquamous carcinoma of the anus.
