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

This study reports the case of a 67-year-old man with scrotal Paget's disease. A systematic analysis of the clinical features, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, and prognosis management of this rare disease was performed in conjunction with a literature review. The patient had a prolonged disease course with a history of three previous lesion excisions and presented this time due to lesion enlargement accompanied by mucous discharge. Dermoscopic examination revealed a "red background with punctate vessels," and preoperative epidermal histopathology supported the diagnosis of Paget's disease. The surgical approach involved wide excision of the lesion, aiming to remove the lesion as completely as possible while preserving the morphology and function of the surrounding tissues. Intraoperative frozen section analysis showed positive margins at the 1, 2, 6, and 11 o'clock positions. After further excision, immunohistochemical staining confirmed cytokeratin 7 (CK7) (+), gross cystic disease fluid protein-15 (GCDFP-15) (+), consistent with a sweat gland origin, and podoplanin (D2-40) (+), indicating a potential risk of lymphatic invasion. Finally, the patient was followed up regularly as planned, and at the most recent follow-up, no signs of recurrence were observed, and treatment outcomes were satisfactory, thereby allowing the discontinuation of further follow-up examinations. This case report provides a valuable practical reference for the standardized diagnosis and treatment of this rare condition.
