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

Melanoma is the fifth most common cancer in the United States, with over 7,000 deaths annually. Although most patients diagnosed with early-stage (stage I or II) disease have an excellent prognosis, two out of three patients who die from melanoma were initially diagnosed in early stages. Thus, additional methods to identify which patients are at risk of poor outcomes are needed. DecisionDx-Melanoma is a 31-gene expression profile (31-GEP) molecular risk stratification test that predicts an individual's risk of recurrence or metastasis in patients with cutaneous melanoma (CM). Here, we describe a 61-year-old man who presented with a spot on his upper scalp. A biopsy confirmed malignant melanoma measuring > 3.87 mm, with ulceration and mitotic rate 2 to 3/mm
