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

Lung cancer is the most common malignant tumour in men and the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Adenocarcinoma is the most common histologic type, accounting for about half of all cases. Cutaneous metastases from lung cancer are rarely the first manifestation of lung cancer, and the histopathologic features are sometimes difficult to distinguish from primary skin tumors. Secondary cutaneous lesions caused by a metastatic process have a poorer clinical prognosis than any other primary cutaneous mimic. We report a case of multiple cutaneous nodules initially mistaken for benign skin lesions and treated unsuccessfully. Histological analysis revealed an underlying lung carcinoma in a woman with no prior medical history and no smoking history. This case demonstrates the need for more thorough evaluation of treatment-resistant skin nodules, as cutaneous metastases may represent the initial manifestation of an internal malignancy.
