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

Microcystic adnexal carcinoma (MAC) is a rare, locally aggressive cutaneous neoplasm with a high potential for local recurrence. It primarily affects the head and neck region and is thought to arise from pluripotent adnexal keratinocytes. The tumor is characterized by slow, progressive growth. A 70-year-old man presented with a lesion in the right supraorbital region, consisting of an irregular, yellowish, firm, and poorly defined plaque. A punch biopsy revealed an infiltrative neoplasm composed of nests and cords of atypical basaloid cells. The patient underwent Mohs micrographic surgery followed by reconstruction using an advancement flap incorporating superior and inferior Burow's triangles. The postoperative course was uneventful, with no evidence of recurrence after six months of follow-up. MAC is a rare cutaneous neoplasm that is frequently underdiagnosed and has a high risk of local recurrence if not completely excised. Mohs micrographic surgery is the treatment of choice because it allows complete margin assessment while maximizing tissue preservation.
