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

Background: Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) are immunocompromised and have both a higher incidence of and more aggressive skin cancers, often requiring treatment with Mohs micrographic surgery. Objective: Characterize operative expectations for Mohs surgery in patients with CLL. Methods: Multicenter retrospective cohort study. Results: One hundred fifty-nine tumors from 99 patients with CLL were matched 1:4 with controls. Cases had higher odds for requiring at least 3 stages during Mohs surgery compared to controls (odds ratio = 1.91; 95% CI [1.21-3.02]; Limitations: Retrospective cohort study and lack of histologic subtyping of tumors. Conclusion: Patients with CLL require more Mohs stages to attain clear surgical margins, have larger postoperative defect areas, and require more advanced repair techniques compared to a control population without CLL. These findings are essential for preoperative planning and patient counseling and further support the use of Mohs surgery in patients with CLL.
