Tall cell carcinoma arising in a thyroglossal duct cyst: A case report.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
introductionThyroglossal duct cyst carcinomas are extremely rare and their clinical presentation is similar to that of benign cysts. The diagnosis is based on physical examination, laboratory tests, and most importantly multiple imaging techniques (ultrasonography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging), and fine needle aspiration cytology. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We report a very unusual case of a tall cell variant of papillary carcinoma arising in a thyroglossal duct cyst in association with a follicular variant of papillary microcarcinoma and a tall cell variant of papillary carcinoma arising from the thyroid gland. DISCUSSION: Although rarely described in the medical literature, ectopic thyroid tissue present in the thyroglossal duct cyst could be involved in the development of a poorly differentiated carcinoma. The frequent observation of an associated primitive thyroid carcinoma makes surgical management of thyroid gland controversial.
conclusionFor the optimal management of this rare pathological condition, a comprehensive preoperative evaluation and meticulous intra-operative appraisal are fundamental.
