Angiosarcoma of the thyroid: a case report with review of the literature.
Review in Endocrine pathology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
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.
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
Angiosarcoma is a rare and aggressive tumor of the thyroid gland, mainly seen in the Alpine regions. We present such a case with literature review. We present the case of a 60-year-old man with cough, dyspnea, and hemoptysis along with slow increase in the size of his long-standing goiter. Computed tomography of the neck showed a large thyroid mass and chest imaging revealed multiple pulmonary nodules. Fine needle aspiration cytology and tru-cut biopsy of the thyroid were notable for poorly differentiated malignant cells. Diagnosis of angiosarcoma of the thyroid was made after total thyroidectomy. Patient died of continued hemoptysis and respiratory failure 3 weeks after admission. We searched the literature for previous case reports using Pubmed and Ovid. Forty-seven reported cases were identified and our case was added to make a database of 48 cases. Demographic and tumor characteristics were analyzed. Angiosarcoma was found to be more common in females and at age of 60 or above. Results were consistent with previously reported series of 14 and 17 cases from Austria. This review provides information on various characteristics angiosarcoma of the thyroid which can be used as baseline data for future reference and research studies for this cancer.
