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

Poroma is a relatively rare benign adnexal neoplastic lesion that usually affects elderly patients in the extremities, with an unclear pathogenesis. It is notable for having a variety of morphological appearances that make diagnosis challenging, particularly when observed on an uncommon anatomical site. Here, we present a case of a woman in her mid-50s who presented with a skin pedunculated lesion over the right thigh. The lesion had a smooth surface and clinically mimicked a skin tag. The lesion was surgically excised and sent for histopathology. On microscopic examination, anastomosing cords and broad columns of more or less uniform basaloid cells extending to the dermis with no atypical changes were seen, confirming the diagnosis of eccrine poroma. It is emphasized that poromas should be considered in the clinical and histological differential diagnosis of nonacral skin lesions. Complete excision cures the condition and prevents local recurrence.
