Pediatric thyroid cancers: an Indian perspective.
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Pediatric thyroid cancer is a rare entity accounting for less than 5% of all thyroid cancers. This intriguing disease is characterized by advanced presentation, coupled with frequent lymph nodal metastases and often pulmonary metastases. It perhaps exhibits a distinct biology and behaviour, because in spite of its aggressiveness, survival is extremely good. This mandates meticulous treatment decisions that are well executed, because the complications of therapy in patients with good survival may spell prolonged morbidity. Being an unusual disease, it is unlikely that level I evidence guiding the management will come forth. There have been controversies regarding management, and the current consensus comes from large prospective studies. There have been only a few studies from India detailing pediatric thyroid cancers. In the current discussion, we review the existing evidence about pediatric thyroid cancers, and try to have an Indian perspective at the problem.
