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

Introduction: Porocarcinoma is a rare skin cancer that arises from the intraepidermal ducts of sweat glands. It is classically found in the 60-70-year-old age group, and lesions are most commonly reported on the head and neck or lower extremities. Case Presentation: This case focuses on a 49-year-old man who presented to an outpatient dermatology clinic with a growing, painful nodule in his right groin. A shave biopsy was conducted and resulted in a diagnosis of a porocarcinoma. Conclusion: Porocarcinoma is an extremely rare skin cancer that most commonly occurs on the head, neck, or lower extremities of 60-70-year-olds. This report details the interesting findings of a porocarcinoma in an unexpected location and age group and reviews pertinent literature.
