Consensus on management of advanced medullary thyroid carcinoma on behalf of the Working Group of Thyroid Cancer of the Spanish Society of Endocrinology (SEEN) and the Spanish Task Force Group for Orphan and Infrequent Tumors (GETHI).
Review in Clinical & translational oncology : official publication of the Federation of Spanish Oncology Societies and of the National Cancer Institute of Mexico, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundOf all thyroid cancers, <5 % are medullary (MTC). It is a well-characterized neuroendocrine tumor arising from calcitonin-secreting C cells, and RET gene plays a central role on its pathogeny.
methodsThe electronic search was conducted using MEDLINE (PubMed), EMBASE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Quality assessments of selected current articles, guidelines and reviews of MTC were performed.
resultsThis consensus updates and summarizes biology, treatment and prognostic considerations of MTC.
conclusionsMultidisciplinary teams and specialized centers are recommended for the management of MTC patients. In the metastatic setting, those patients with large volume of disease are candidates to start systemic treatment mainly if they are symptomatic and the tumor has progressed in the last 12-14 months. Wait and see strategy should be offered to patients with: disseminated disease with only high levels of calcitonin and no macroscopic structural disease, low burden and absence of progression.
