Scrotal Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans in a Patient with Schizophrenia: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare spindle cell soft tissue sarcoma of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. We present the fourth case of scrotal DFSP in the literature, identified in a 32-year-old male with schizophrenia. Wide surgical excision and radical orchiectomy were performed revealing an uninvolved testicle and DFSP of the scrotum. A unique challenge to this case was concurrent aortic dissection and schizophrenia. Social determinants of health are associated with delay in presentation and poor appointment compliance in patients with schizophrenia. Ultimately, DFSP of the scrotum is an extremely rare condition with this presentation being only the fourth report in the literature. It is important to document these unique cases to establish differential diagnoses and optimize management.
