Clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors for primary thyroid lymphoma: report on 28 Chinese patients and results of a population-based study.

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
objectivesFew studies on prognostic indicators for primary thyroid lymphoma (PTL) have been presented due to the uncommon nature of the tumor. This is the first study to explore the independent prognostic factors in the 2 PTL subtypes.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 1,653 cases of PTL. The cases comprised 28 Chinese patients from a local cohort and 1,625 patients from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database from 1973 to 2013. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the demographics and prognostic factors of PTL patients.
resultsThe disease-specific survival (DSS) and prognostic indicators were significantly different between patients with extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) and patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Patients with MALT lymphoma were younger (
conclusionPTL demonstrates specific clinical features and is associated with a relatively good prognosis. Older age is associated with poor DSS in both MALT patients and DLBCL patients. Additionally, combination of different treatment modalities is associated with improved DSS in DLBCL patients.
