Abnormal Presence of Cholesterol Crystals within Poroma.
Article in Journal of hand surgery global online, 2025. 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
Eccrine poromas are small adnexal neoplasms that arise from the lumen of sweat glands. These lesions are typically small and can mimic other skin conditions, complicating their differentiation during physical examination. We present a case involving a 70-year-old Caucasian man who presented with an unusual mass on his left hand that had considerably increased in size. Initially, a diagnosis of a ganglion was considered; however, subsequent surgical removal and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of poroma. Notably, cholesterol crystals were also found in the mass, a finding that is atypical for this type of neoplasm. If not addressed, poromas may undergo malignant transformation into porocarcinoma, which is associated with poor prognostic outcomes. Furthermore, various systemic or metabolic conditions may influence the development and prognosis of these neoplasms, informing their management and treatment strategies.
