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

Malignant melanoma of the sinonasal area is a rare tumor that arises from melanocytes in the nasal mucosa and is more aggressive than the cutaneous type with a poor prognosis. We report a 60-year-old female with the initial chief complaint of nasal cavity fullness, continuous epistaxis, and nasal bone deformity in the past two months. In a primary examination, a black mass was found, and in an excisional biopsy, the pathologist reported sinonasal malignant melanoma, which was confirmed after IHC staining. In spindle cell tumors of the head and neck area, we should be aware of mucosal malignant melanoma as a differential diagnosis.
