Molecular radiotheragnostics in thyroid disease.
Article in Clinical medicine (London, England), 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Molecular radiotheragnostics directly links nuclear medicine diagnostic imaging to therapy. The imaging study is used to detect a specific molecular target associated with a disease process. A radiotherapeutic molecule with a similar biodistribution to the diagnostic agent can then be used to deliver targeted therapy.Molecular radiotheragnostics have been applied to manage both benign and malignant thyroid disease since the 1940s. The specific molecular pathway targeted is the sodium/iodide symporter (NIS) located on the basolateral membrane of the thyroid follicular cell. Radiolabelling of iodide or a similar ion allows targeting of the NIS system with radiopharmaceuticals for imaging (
