Risk Factors for Thyroid Cancer in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.
Article in Global pediatric health, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We studied 3 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who developed thyroid cancer (TC). Potential risk factors for TC development was explored. Fifty-three patients with a clinical diagnosis of rheumatic diseases including SLE at our hospital between July 2014 and December 2014 were enrolled. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory findings were retrospectively compared between TC-positive and TC-negative patients. Among rheumatic diseases, lymphadenopathy/splenomegaly at treatment commencement, and lymphadenopathy/splenomegaly, painless ulcer (oral, nasal, or mucosal), and weight loss during the entire study period were precipitating factors. Lower current values of hemoglobin and methylprednisolone pulse therapy favored TC development. In 29 SLE patients, lymphadenopathy/splenomegaly at treatment commencement, lymphadenopathy/splenomegaly and weight loss during the entire study period, urinary granular casts at treatment commencement, and a lower current value of hemoglobin predisposed patients to TC. Several risk factors of TC are present in pediatric SLE. Patients with SLE should be investigated vigorously for TC with ultrasound.
