Diagnosis of carcinomas of extrathyroidal origin with fine needle aspiration cytology of the thyroid: An experience from a tertiary care center in South India.

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
Intrathyroidal metastasis and direct extension of extrathyroidal malignancies can present with palpable thyroid nodules or may be detected as suspicious nodules in a thyroid scan. They can lead to diagnostic difficulty in fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of the thyroid, especially in the absence of any previous history of such malignancies. Here we report an interesting case of intrathyroidal metastasis, which was initially suspected as a primary carcinoma of the thyroid; along with a short summary of a series of 11 cases of carcinomas of extrathyroidal origin, diagnosed in the FNACs of thyroid over the past three years in our institute. Knowledge of the potential diagnostic pitfalls in thyroid FNAC, a proper clinical evaluation, and judicious use of the ancillary techniques will help to attain a proper diagnosis.
