Cutaneous Metastasis From Gallbladder Carcinoma: A Rare Case.
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
The occurrence of cutaneous metastasis from internal malignancies is relatively rare. Furthermore, cutaneous metastasis from gallbladder carcinoma is an infrequent phenomenon, with only a few reported cases. Here, we report a case of a 45-year-old male with cutaneous metastasis from primary gallbladder carcinoma, initially presenting solely with a scrotal lesion. The lesion was initially misdiagnosed. Later, an abdominal ultrasound performed for another purpose incidentally revealed a mass in the gallbladder, which was subsequently confirmed as gallbladder carcinoma by CT scan (computed tomography scan). Following the diagnosis of gallbladder carcinoma, an incisional biopsy of the lesion was performed due to the suspicion of cutaneous metastasis. Histopathological analyses and the immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy specimen confirmed it as metastatic adenocarcinoma. As for the neoplasm of the gallbladder, skin is a comparatively infrequent site of metastasis, with only a few recorded incidents. Clinicians, especially in regions with a higher incidence of gallbladder carcinoma, should always consider cutaneous metastasis as a differential while treating any abnormal skin lesion in patients with gallbladder carcinoma.
