Primary Sarcomas of Thyroid Gland-Series of Three Cases with Brief Review of Spindle Cell Lesions of Thyroid.
Article in Journal of clinical and diagnostic research : JCDR, 2017. 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
Primary Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma (MFH-T) and Leiomyosarcoma (LMS-T) of the thyroid gland are extremely rare tumors. Very few cases have been reported in the literature. Both entities occur more commonly in women than men. The closest clinical and histological differential diagnosis is anaplastic carcinoma of thyroid. We present three cases of rare primary sarcomas of thyroid gland. Case-1 was a 63-year-old woman and Case-2 was a 52-year-old woman. Both of them presented with a rapidly increasing thyroid mass clinically mimicking anaplastic carcinoma (AC-T). Both the patients developed pulmonary metastasis and succumbed to the illness soon after the diagnosis of MFH-T was made. Case 3 was 65-year-old woman with neck swelling since six months diagnosed as LMS-T. The present communication adds three new cases to the literature on sarcomas of thyroid gland with an emphasis on differential diagnosis of spindle cell lesions of thyroid. MFH-T and LMS-T needs to be differentiated from AC-T, metastatic sarcomas, spindle cell variant of medullary carcinoma, synovial sarcoma, fibrosarcoma; final diagnosis rests on histopathology and immunohistochemistry.
