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 adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) of the trachea with thyroid invasion is very rare. In this report, we present a 46-year-old man with primary ACC of the trachea with thyroid invasion. ACC invasion of the thyroid is very rare and is easily misdiagnosed. The patient sought consultation due to a 6-month history of dysphagia and associated dyspnea. A contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan obtained at the time of admission revealed bilateral thyroid masses and tracheal wall thickening. The thyroid masses were fused to the trachea and the esophagus without discernible borders, intraoperatively. Frozen pathology suggested poorly differentiated cancer, and a bilateral partial thyroidectomy was performed. Postoperative pathology revealed primary tracheal ACC with thyroid invasion. The patient died 1 month after surgery. We have also summarized the literature on the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of thyroid-invasive ACC.
