Thyroid Hürthle cell tumors: research of potential markers of malignancy.

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
introductionHurthle cell tumors (HCTs) are rare thyroid neoplasia. To date, capsular and/or vascular invasion are the only findings predicting malignancy. Recently, mutation of 19p13, encoding two proteins involved in cell proliferation and apoptosis (GRIM-19 and p19), has been described. The aim of our study is to evaluate the cellular proliferation index (Ki67), GRIM-19 and p19 expression as diagnostic markers of malignancy in HCT. MATERIALS AND
methodsEighty patients with HCT (32 carcinomas, 48 adenomas) whom underwent surgery in our center were included. Samples of both neoplastic lesions and adjacent normal thyroid tissue were analyzed by means of tissue micro-arrays. Correlations between expressions of Ki67, GRIM-19 and p19 and final histology were analyzed.
resultsMean size of the lesion was higher in carcinomas than in adenomas (p = 0.01). GRIM-19 and p19 were significantly underexpressed in Hurthle cells tumors compared to normal tissue (p = 0.0004 and p = 0.0001, respectively). Ki67 and GRIM-19 were, respectively, higher and down-expressed in carcinomas compared to adenomas (p = 0.0004 and p = 0.005, respectively). On multivariate analysis, size correlates with carcinoma diagnosis. Neither GRIM-19 nor Ki67 index was related to size. The expression of p19 was reduced in both adenoma and carcinoma but differences were not statistically significant (p = 0.13).
conclusionsOur study suggest that Ki67 and GRIM-19 correlate with malignancy in HCT. The expression of p19 is down-regulated in HCT, but it is not diagnostic of carcinoma. Ki67 and GRIM-19 may potentially help as cytological markers of malignancy in HCT.
