Gender-specific correlation of intranodular chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis with thyroid nodule size, echogenicity, and histologically-verified cytological class of malignancy risk.
Article in Journal of clinical & translational endocrinology, 2018. 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
No data are available on the cytologically and histologically demonstrated presence of intranodular chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis (ICLT) and on the ICLT relationship with thyroid nodule characteristics such as size, echotexture and nature (benign or malignant). We wished to fill this gap by analyzing data in a gender-specific fashion. We studied 408 thyroid nodules from 408 consecutive persons (325 females and 83 males). Nodules were isoechoic (n = 268) or hypoechoic (n = 140), ICLT +ve (n = 113 [27.7%]) or ICLT -ve (n = 295), cytologically low-risk (n = 197) or high-risk (n = 211), histologically benign (n = 263) or malignant (n = 145). ICLT prevailed in females (97/113) and in hypoechoic nodules (58/140 [41.4%]
