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

Thyroid carcinomas of follicular epithelial derivation are common and generally well-behaved malignancies with excellent cure and survival rates. However, a subset of these carcinomas, whether well-differentiated, poorly differentiated, or anaplastic, is highly aggressive, manifesting with local invasion, recurrence, and distant metastasis. The recognition of dedifferentiation is of paramount importance. In addition, the challenge for Pathologists is to identify the rare aggressive differentiated carcinomas so that treatment may be tailored appropriately. Thus, histological subtyping and documentation of other aggressive features such as widespread invasion and angioinvasion are critical. Mutational analyses in the past decade have delineated the molecular alterations responsible for thyroid carcinogenesis and progression, allowing greater sub-classification and prognostication of thyroid carcinomas. This review article highlights important aggressive morphologic features and molecular mutations associated with thyroid carcinoma.
