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

Background/Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the risk of melanoma in patients with excised skin lesions (ESLs) considering their clinical features. Patients and Methods: A total of 126 cases of ESLs were collected between December 2021 and April 2025. The clinical features of 109 benign skin lesions (BSLs), 10 non-nodular melanomas (NNMs), and seven nodular melanomas (NMs) were analyzed according to the ABCDE criteria, the ABCDE-EFG method, and the 7-point checklist (7-PCL) scale. Results: In univariate analysis, compared to BSLs, NNMs presented more common irregular borders ( Conclusion: The most important clinical features increasing the risk of melanoma were rapid growth within six weeks/atypical skin lesion
