Clinicopathologic characteristics and outcomes of patients with mycosis fungoides: A single tertiary center retrospective analysis in Saudi Arabia.

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
objectivesTo determine the distinctive clinical and pathological characteristics and outcomes of MF in a Saudi population.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis of all MF cases diagnosed clinically with pathological confirmation at King Abdulaziz Medical City in Riyadh from January 2016 to July 2022. Variables include demographical, clinical, and pathological MF traits and disease outcomes.
resultsA sum of 73 patients were enrolled. The mean age was 44 years. The female-to-male ratio was 1.3:1.The mean duration between cutaneous manifestations and MF diagnosis was 33 months (2.7 years). Classic MF was the most common variant (60.3%), followed by hypopigmented MF (20.5%). Most patients (82.2%) had early-stage MF (IA, IB, and IIA). Patients who had CD4+/CD8+ with CD8 predominance had a favorable disease course (
conclusionAmong the Saudi population, MF has an earlier onset and slightly higher prevalence in females. Hypopigmented MF is more prevalent in this ethnic group. Immunohistochemical staining of CD4+/CD8+ with CD8 predominance may elucidate a favorable disease course.
