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

Vulvar melanoma (VM) is a rare and aggressive malignancy with a high metastatic potential. We present the case of an 82-year-old woman who initially presented with vaginal bleeding and was diagnosed with VM with lymph node involvement. Despite surgical and palliative interventions, she later developed brain, nodal, and pancreatic metastases. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) confirmed pancreatic metastasis through immunohistochemistry. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of pancreatic metastasis from VM diagnosed by EUS-FNB. This case highlights the importance of EUS-FNB in diagnosing metastatic lesions in unusual locations.
