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

Carcinoma cuniculatum is a variant of squamous cell carcinoma, characterized by a slow growth with progressive crypt-like invasion of deep tissue. This tumor is frequently misdiagnosed as a benign skin lesion both clinically and histopathologically. The final diagnosis is often delayed as it requires a large sample biopsy. We report the case of a 67-year-old patient who presented to us with a recurring chronic ulcer over a surgical scar of 5 years of evolution. Only after a wide resection of the chronic ulcer was it possible to achieve the correct diagnosis of this large and poorly evolving carcinoma. The subsequent reconstruction with a musculocutaneous gracilis free flap allowed the patient to walk again.
