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

Primary thyroid lymphoma (PTL) is a relatively rare malignant tumor. Aggressive PTL is extremely rare, and there is limited literature regarding the imaging features of PTL with invasion into adjacent structures, including internal jugular vein, muscles, esophagus, trachea and carotid artery. In addition, the ultrasonographic features of the cases presented in the current report differ from those reported in previous studies. In the present study, two cases of PTL, who presented to The First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College (Wuhu, China) with a short history of a rapidly growing mass in the front of their neck, are reported. Both patients had undergone ultrasound examination, and the subsequent histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations confirmed that the two masses were primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The ultrasonographic findings of these two cases are discussed in the present report.
