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

backgroundOver 95% of all thyroid malignancies are non-medullary thyroid carcinomas (NMTC). Familial NMTC are more aggressive and mortality is higher as compared with sporadic carcinomas. Known genetic factors do not explain all familial NMTC. Recently, thyroid disorders have been observed in families with germline mutations in aryl hydrocarbon receptor interacting protein (AIP) but, due to frequent occurrence of these conditions in the population, the significance of this co-occurrence is not clear. AIM, SUBJECTS AND

methodsTo examine whether AIP is involved in familial NMTC, we performed AIP mutation screening in 93 familial NMTC cases. In addition, the AIP status was studied in one follicular thyroid adenoma patient with a known AIP mutation from an additional cohort.

resultsNo potentially pathogenic changes were identified, but two likely rare polymorphisms were detected. AIP mutation-positive patient's follicular thyroid adenoma showed no loss of heterozygosity or lack of immunohistochemical AIP staining.

conclusionOur study indicates that germline AIP mutations are rare or do not exist in familial NMTC.
