Acral lentiginous melanoma with multiple bone metastasis: case report.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 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
Acral lentiginous melanoma (ALM) is a type of melanoma that is traditionally seen on the soles of the feet, palms of the hand, and under the fingernails or toenails. It is the least frequently diagnosed melanoma among the four histologic subtypes of cutaneous melanoma, accounting for less than 5% of all cases. ALM is frequently diagnosed at late stages and has higher incidences in non-white populations in relation to the other forms of cutaneous malignant melanoma. The most common sites of metastases in melanoma are the skin and subcutaneous tissue followed by lung, liver, brain, and bone. Bone metastases from malignant melanoma usually occur in patients who already have widespread metastases. We present this paper as a unique case study of ALM lesion in an 84-year-old African American male presenting originally in the base of right fifth toe plantar aspect then found multiple bone metastases without any other organ involved.
