Benign Nevi Mimicking Melanoma: A Diagnostic Dilemma.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The incidence of melanoma is increasing worldwide and is not restricted as previously to fair-skinned individuals and one of the main contributing factors is the drastic development of diagnostic approach to the melanocytic lesions. Additionally, melanomas are often misdiagnosed (underdiagnosed and overdiagnosed) as many benign melanocytic lesions such as Spitz nevus, deep penetrating nevus (DPN), compound nevus, and regenerating nevi exhibit some features of melanoma. Clinico-pathological correlation is of utmost importance in the diagnosis of such lesions. Cytological details should be carefully studied in addition to a good "low power" assessment of the growth pattern. Appropriate immunohistochemistry (IHC) is necessary whenever needed as misdiagnosis has deleterious consequences for both the patient and the pathologist.
