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

Multinucleate cell angiohistiocytoma (MCAH) is a rarely reported and likely underdiagnosed cutaneous entity with benign biological behavior. MCAH is described as a solitary or multiple proliferation of vascular and fibrohistiocytic origin, with largely unknown etiopathogenesis. It presents as red-brown to violaceous papules or nodules, mainly on the extremities, and is usually asymptomatic. A definitive diagnosis of MCAH requires specific histopathological and immunohistochemical findings. The following report presents a case of solitary MCAH with the aim of clarifying the clinical, histological, and especially dermoscopic aspects of this dermatological disorder, which may resemble more aggressive skin tumors.
