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

Ocular melanoma encompasses the uveal tract, conjunctiva, eyelid, and orbit. Palpebral localization is extremely infrequent, constituting less than 1% of skin melanomas, the main treatment of which is surgical. However, the radicality of the resection is restricted by anatomical location and functional sequelae. The importance of obtaining free surgical margins, which impact the percentage rate of locoregional recurrence and patient survival, has led to recommendations regarding the distance of the margin in the macroscopic (5 mm) and microscopic (>2 mm) evaluation, as well as the use of Mohs surgical technique for selected groups. Adequate surgical and reconstructive planning are the main objectives of multidisciplinary management in these patients. We present the case of a patient with palpebral melanoma treated in an oncology unit in Latin America.
