Melanoma: Does It Present Differently in Darker Skin Tones?
Article in MedEdPORTAL : the journal of teaching and learning resources, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: There are vast differences in clinical presentations of melanoma across skin tones. Individuals with darker skin tones tend to have a higher prevalence of advanced-stage melanoma, which correlates with increased mortality. We designed this interactive workshop to increase nursing and medical trainees' awareness of the epidemiology, prevention, and treatment of melanoma in individuals of darker skin tones. Methods: The Kern model was used in the design, implementation, and evaluation of the workshop. The 75-minute workshop consisted of a PowerPoint presentation, video-based reflection activities, and case studies. Evaluation consisted of pre- and postworkshop questionnaires. The workshop was implemented two times among 63 nursing students, 11 medical students/residents, and six medical faculty. Results: Seventy-one participants completed the pre- and postworkshop evaluations. A comparison of pre- and postworkshop responses utilizing the Wilcoxon matched-pair signed rank test showed a statistically significant increase in learners' confidence to address each learning objective. Discussion: Through this interactive educational presentation, medical and nursing trainees can gain heightened awareness of melanoma across various skin tones, especially unique presentations in darker skin tones.
