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 herein present the case of a 79-year-old female patient who presents with a single asymptomatic pulmonary nodule, melanocytic in nature, later identified as a remote secondary lesion of a primary cutaneous melanoma that was resected 22 years before presentation. Although quite atypical, the patient underwent resection of the affected pulmonary lobe; follow-up imaging did not reveal any local or distant recurrences.
