Isolated melanoma metastasis in a patient with large congenital nevus without detectable primary melanoma: a case report and review of literature.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 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
Giant congenital pigmented nevi constitute an extremely diverse group of skin lesions with varying morphologies. These nevi are often associated with many clinical implications, such as increased risk of melanoma and the presence of neurocutaneous melanosis, with melanoma being the primary concern. We present a rare case of a 62-year-old patient with a giant congenital birthmark who reported to the oncology department due to a tumor in the lower abdomen detected during an ultrasound examination. A biopsy of the lesion showed the presence of melanoma metastasis. Four independent dermatologists performed a dermoscopic examination of the patient's skin and mucous membranes. In the PET/CT examination, apart from the previously described change in the lower abdomen, no metabolically active foci with features of malignant growth were found. The patient underwent surgical removal of the lesion in the lower abdomen. The postoperative histopathological examination confirmed the presence of metastasis of melanoma in the subcutaneous tissue of the abdomen with no connection to the epidermis. The
