Hiding in the Folds: Case Report Highlighting the Role of Imaging in Detecting Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans.
Article in Journal of primary care & community health. 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
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare slow-growing skin cancer with a great capacity for local destruction. DFSP can manifest in a myriad of ways. This case report aims to contribute to the literature by increasing awareness of this condition, along with common diagnostic practices and treatment regimens. We present a 52-year-old Filipino woman who was evaluated for dyspnea with an incidental finding of an indeterminate nodule on imaging. A comprehensive diagnostic workup confirmed dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP), which was ultimately treated with surgical resection. Clinically, about 52% of patients are misdiagnosed, leading to poor outcomes. Therefore, awareness, early detection, multidisciplinary treatment, and lifelong screening are essential for optimal outcomes.
