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

Introduction: Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer, with a rising incidence globally. We encountered a patient with the nonpigmented adenoid subtype of BCC. The nonpigmented subtype of BCC accounts for only a small percentage of cases of BCC in the Asian population, with the adenoid subtype of BCC also being rare in all human ethnicities. Case Presentation: An 82-year-old woman presented to us with a growth in the inner canthus of the left eye, which had been slowly evolving for about 1 year. The lesion had failed to respond to a variety of topical treatments. Physical examination revealed a reddish plaque in the inner canthus of the left eye that measured 10 × 6 mm in size. Dermoscopic evaluation showed blue-gray globules and arborizing telangiectasia. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of adenoid BCC. Conclusion: We analyzed the data of patients with the adenoid subtype of BCC in the Japanese population and found the possibility that this variant of BCC was often nonpigmented. Furthermore, we collected the dermoscopic findings of patients with the adenoid subtype of BCC; however, the data revealed no other noteworthy characteristics at present. We expect that further characterization of these two variants of BCC through accumulation of data from clinical cases will contribute to facilitating early diagnosis.
