Primary Anorectal Mucosal Melanoma: A Unique Presentation of Mucosal Melanomas.
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
Anorectal mucosal melanoma (AMM) is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy. It frequently presents with nonspecific symptoms, often resulting in delayed diagnosis and poor prognosis. This report describes the case of a 60-year-old male who presented with a painful para-anal papule that progressed to a fistula. Histopathological and immunohistochemical analyses confirmed AMM. Imaging revealed a locally advanced tumor without distant metastasis. Due to the locally advanced nature of the disease, a multidisciplinary team recommended neoadjuvant radiotherapy. This case highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with AMM and emphasizes the importance of a tailored, multidisciplinary approach. Surgical resection remains the cornerstone of treatment, with neoadjuvant therapy potentially improving surgical outcomes in advanced cases.
