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

The skin often reflects the presence of internal diseases. Acrokeratosis neoplastica (Bazex syndrome) is a unique skin manifestation characterized by its erythematous hyperkeratosis with yellowish, adherent scales on the palm, sole, or other acral locations. There is a potentially high association between Bazex syndrome and malignant pathology, especially squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). To date, various skin conditions have been recognized as diagnostic indicators of insidious malignancies. The recognition of paraneoplastic dermatoses has a strong potential for prompt cancer detection and early therapeutic intervention. Here we describe clinical and forensic cases of Bazex syndrome that are associated with SCC of the glottis and lung. Bazex syndrome has been reported to be associated with a variety of cancers in addition to SCC. We review the clinical manifestations of Bazex syndrome and include updated knowledge on disease pathogenesis.
