Shining Light on a Dark Corner: A Case Report on Perianal Basal Cell Carcinoma.
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
Perianal basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is a rare occurrence, with limited documented cases in the existing literature. The precise etiology contributing to its onset remains inadequately elucidated. Macroscopically, perianal BCC often exhibits atypical features, potentially leading to diagnostic challenges. Histopathological examination plays a crucial role in distinguishing BCC from other cutaneous lesions in this region. Despite its localized nature, perianal BCC generally carries a favorable prognosis characterized by a gradual progression. However, diligent follow-up is essential to mitigate the risk of recurrence. Our clinical observation highlights a noteworthy yet uncommon manifestation. The patient, a 64-year-old male, presented with a persistent perianal lesion evolving over a three-month period. Symptoms included intermittent bleeding and purulent discharge, exacerbating the clinical picture. A biopsy was subsequently performed, confirming the diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma. Following this, the patient underwent external beam radiation therapy as part of the treatment regimen.
