Skin cancers diagnosed at the dermatology department of a tertiary hospital in Jordan over one year.

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
introductionSkin tumours comprise an important fraction of dermatology practice. Skin tumours can be benign or malignant, and patients can present with a merely unsightly nodule to a rapidly growing nodule. The diagnosis is made on pathological basis, which is done after performing skin biopsies.
aimIn this study, we aim to describe the characteristics of malignant skin tumors diagnosed by skin biopsies over a one-year period (2023) at the Department of Dermatology, King Hussein Medical Center (KHMC).
methodsIn this retrospective study, data from biopsies that were done at our department and diagnosed as skin cancers were collected, patients' demographics were registered; including age, gender, and tumour location, and final diagnosis was recorded. Data was registered on an Excel® datasheet and analyzed using simple statistical methods.
resultsThere were 78 biopsies that were diagnosed as skin cancers at the department of Dermatology. Of these, the most common diagnosis was basal cell carcinoma with 38% of the biopsied cancers. Eighteen per cent were diagnosed as squamous cell carcinomas, and 15% were melanomas. Mycosis fungoides and cutaneous T cell lymphoma cases were included in this study and reached 18% of the diagnosed skin cancers in our patients.
