Nasal Tip Cutaneous Metastasis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Cutaneous metastasis is rare in clinical practice, especially that from primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which is even rarer. Case Presentation: This report describes a male patient with HCC with cutaneous metastases to the nasal tip. The patient developed a raised nodule at the nasal tip 5 years after surgery for HCC, with surface ulceration and crusting and no obvious symptoms. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed an obvious mass in the liver. The skin lesions on the nasal tip were confirmed to be cutaneous metastasis of HCC by histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations. Conclusion: The incidence of cutaneous metastasis of HCC is extremely low, and nasal tip cutaneous metastasis of HCC has no specific clinical manifestations; therefore, it needs to be distinguished from rosacea rhinophyma, fungal and atypical mycobacterial infections, tumours of vascular origin, and tumours of skin appendages that occur in the nasal tip and is prone to misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis, thus requiring clinical dermatologists and otolaryngologists to be aware of such metastasis.
