Diabetic ulcer with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundChronic skin ulcers are a risk factor for the development of skin tumors. In patients with diabetes, chronic refractory ulcers may also contribute to higher susceptibility to skin tumors. Timely surgical removal of chronic and nonhealing diabetic foot ulcers can effectively prevent progression to squamous cell carcinoma. Such cases may be misdiagnosed owing to currently insufficient clinical evidence. However, in cases of chronic ulcer wounds, it is crucial to enhance clinical awareness regarding their potential progression into malignant lesions. CASE SUMMARY: An 84-year-old male patient with diabetes presented with a significantly ulcerated area on his foot. The ulcer had been present to varying degrees since 1996. Between 2012 and July 2019, even after receiving treatments such as herbal medicines or heat clearance and detoxification complete healing of the wound was not achieved. In July 2020, histopathological analysis confirmed a well-differentiated cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. After the treatments, the ulcer wound healed slowly and did not expand.
conclusionPotentially malignant lesions in chronic ulcer wounds should be identified and treated in a timely manner to prevent their progression.
